EXCLUSIVE: Wreningham caravaners exposed

In the week that many of the WrenSocial regulars took to the roads, hand-in-hand with their tin boxes trailing behind them, a little internet research has revealed exactly why some Wreningham men like caravans so much:


Dirty old men!

We are open on Thursday and Friday nights from 8pm as usual and this week we have a beer brand from the past: Tolly 'Personal Best' - just hope it's not one that Mark found when he cleared out the beer cellar.

Even Wreningham caravaners welcome!

Do you remember any of these classic Tolly Cobbold adverts?:

Shout it loud - ABBOT ALE this week!


It is widely considered amongst many of our yellow & green supporting regulars, that not much of any worth comes out of Suffolk, however there are a few exceptions to this rule. 

Perhaps close to the top of the acceptable Suffolk export list is the utterly awesome GREENE KING ABBOT ALE (my mouth is already watering as I type this!) 

The famous Domesday Book chronicles "cerevisiarii" or 'ale brewers' as servants of the Abbot in Bury St Edmunds Great Abbey. The Greene King brewery sits alongside the historic ruins of the Abbey and to this day their brewers still draw water from the same chalk wells used by brewing predecessors all those years ago.


At 5% ABV there may be a few who choose to "warm-up" with a couple of pints of something slightly lighter and with our new cellar cooling system up an running, our other regular Suffolk export, Adnams Lighthouse has never tasted better.

See you all on Thursday & Friday from 8pm.

Friday the 13th - what could go wrong!

We're not superstitious and we refuse to be beaten by this rain, so this week we've got two lovely summer ales to enjoy:


GREENE KING IPA GOLD (4.1% ABV)
This light golden ale brings the best out of the Savinsjki Goldings hop variety. The timing for introducing these hops is all-important because this creates the balance between the hoppy aroma and the bitterness of the aftertaste. For Greene King IPA Gold, our brewers add the hops at a later stage of the boil than with the Greene King IPA – this brings out tropical fruit aromas and spicy notes, which are followed by the clean, bitter flavour and crisp, dry finish. 




ADNAMS LIGHTHOUSE (3.4% ABV)
A classic amber beer delivering a crisp, refreshing taste. With its light fragrance, lovely malt flavours and long hoppy after palate, Adnams Lighthouse shines through as another champion Beer From The Coast.


Were open on Thursday 12th from 8pm for our weekly BEER NIGHT and then again on Friday 13th from 8pm, when barring a plague of locusts or an absolute soaking, we will have our new BBQ out again!


1st BURGER FREE TO WRENSOCIAL MEMBERS


Looking forward to seeing you all.

Flaming good fun

To celebrate the historic arrival of the Olympic torch on our doorstep, we thought that it would be appropriate to fire up the BBQ for our July Family Night and enjoy a few flames 'Wreningham style' - with burgers on them!

We will be open from 6.30pm on Friday 6th July for some flame-grilled fun and lots of beer.

Open on Thursday 5th too for our weekly BEER NIGHT. This week the beer has got an Olympic feel too, as we've got GREENE KING IPA GOLD, 4.1% ABV.
