This will enable you to sample Suffolk 'n' Good Ales!

Cask ale accounts for 15% of all draught beers consumed in the United Kingdom.
The gas in real ale is naturally occurring carbon-dioxide (Co2), which is a bi-product from the fermentation process, specifically the action of the live yeast on the sugar during the fermentation.
The average pub spends over £70,000 per annum on locally sourced goods and services.
Over 1/3 of the UK's barley crop are bought by UK brewers', who are also major buyers of English hops.

Over 20 draught bitters are available through JV Trading.
The draught bitter and stout sector makes up around 23% of UK beer market.
On average, the UK consumes 16 million pints of beer everyday.
The top 5 draught bitters in the on-trade sector are all Nitrokeg beers, (dispensed by mixed gas = 70% Nitrogen and 30% Co2) as opposed to the standard Co2 dispense method. This creates a smoother taste and texture to the beer, which indicates the success of the method of serving since it's introduction in the mid 1990's.
