The Story It was written in the stars. Master brewing ran in Colonel Porter s family, so following his time in military service, he teamed up with Chief Chemist Archie Jones, and took up the challenge of creating a brand new ale. Their combined skills and three years of dedication and refining, hidden away and in secrecy in Archie s Lab, resulted in the star of ales launching in 1927 Newcastle Brown Ale (aka Dog, Journey into Space, Lunatic s Broth). Striking popular with the locals in the north, Colonel Porter wanted to share this bold brew with everyone far and wide and so navigating with constellation maps and led by the stars they travelled the globe distributing numerous bottles of Dog, with its ever-increasingly famous blue star badge (its five points representing the five founding breweries of Newcastle) and now, over 0 countries around the world enjoy this marvellous beverage. Just follow The Great Bear he always points North. And so we welcome you to Colonel Porter s Emporium - a home that celebrates this journey, with a Tavern, Botanical Gardens and Rhum Bar. A place where Newcastle Brown Ale is enjoyed in its traditional form. And where you ll also find vintage cocktails, tipsy teas, real ales, tip top Champagne, rhum masterclasses, private hire and an adventure around every corner It s a true northern star. Come and see a man about a dog you re always welcome.
