Greggs launches its first ever range of beers
FOOD-TO-GO retailer brand and pastry specialists Greggs has brewed up an exciting addition to the off-trade in time for Christmas with its own range of beers.
Taking inspiration from a classic Greggs doughnut as well as the brand’s history in Newcastle, the two brews are available exclusively through Fenwick Newcastle Food Hall as well as Fenwick’s online store.
Made in partnership with Full Circle Brew Co., the beers aim to bring a “distinctively north east flavour” to every pint with the Pink Jammie Pale Ale and the Gosforth 1939 Stottie Lager.
The Pink Jammie Pale Ale, inspired by the jam-filled doughnut of the same name, provides a brew that captures the sweets taste of the iconic Greggs’ treat in a 440ml can of ale with an ABV of 5%.
Meanwhile, the Gosforth 1939 Stottie Lager brings a malty, bready character to the table which takes its name from the location and year when Greggs was founded.
The two brews are available in packs of size online, with three of each variant, for a limited time with a price of £28 per pack.
The two beers are also available on draft at ‘The Golden Flake Tavern’, a Greggs pop-up pub in Fenwick Newcastle. This marks the brand’s first ever pub and is only open for a limited time until February 2026.
Greggs reckons the new brews will made for the ideal Christmas gift for any pastry-fanatic across the UK.
A spokesperson for Greggs said: “Forget boring Christmas gifts. This year, you can give the Greggs superfan in your life the ultimate six-pack. The Greggs beer comes in two flavours – the Pink Jammie Pale Ale and the Gosforth 1939 Stottie Lager – with a gift set of six cans (three of each beer) available to buy exclusively at Fenwick Newcastle Food Hall, in addition to online.”
