Humber Doucy Brewing Company
Humber Doucy Brewing Company is a family-owned and operated brewery based in deepest Suffolk. Founded by a father and son duo, a maltster and a brewer, we make fresh, vegan friendly beers that celebrate local ingredients and the culture of Suffolk.
They’re meandering, relaxing, and a little bit shady – like an afternoon under oak beams. Or like Humber Doucy Lane, from which we take our name: modern Ipswich houses on one side, the countryside on the other. It’s named for the ‘refreshing shade’ (‘ombre douce’) found there by Napoleonic War prisoners relaxing after their labours.
Or is it? Like a lot of the mardles you’ll hear in a Suffolk pub, that one is … debatable.
Ever fancied having your own beer label? We can make that dream come true!
Working in partnership with you, a personalised and uniquely branded beer is the corporate gift that will be memorable, fun and not end up in the back of a drawer. If you want to say thank you to your clients and team, make your brand pop and stand out in the crowd, or celebrate an event, then give us a call. Our white-label brews are just what you are looking for.

Ipswich & Suffolk Small Business Association
Ipswich & Suffolk Small Business Association (ISSBA) was set up as a not for profit organisation in the 1980s as a way of providing peer to peer support for small business owners. Starting and running a business can be a lonely place so connecting with other businesses owners is an invaluable way to share ideas/experiences and offer mutual support.
ISSBA still maintains the same ethos to this day as our volunteer committee, made up of local business people, focus on providing valuable support, events and useful information to members backed up by their own understanding of the ups and downs of the business world.
We run monthly networking events where you will always be guaranteed a friendly and warm welcome. ISSBA also runs the annual Anglia Business Exhibition which will next take place on 7th May 2025 at Trinity Park, Ipswich. Businesses from across the region will come together for a fantastic day of networking, connections and generating business.

Charities We’re Supporting
Suffolk Accident Rescue Service (SARS)
Suffolk Accident Rescue Service (SARS) is an emergency medical charity set up in 1972. SARS offers a voluntary local response that can help treat time-critical patients before they reach the hospital. SARS responders include anaesthetists, critical care paramedics and advanced clinical practitioners.
These experienced clinicians have additional skills, which enable them to undertake medical interventions at the scene of an incident, which would not otherwise be possible outside the hospital environment. All SARS clinicians are mobilised via the 999 critical care desk and offer their services without charge. The presence of a SARS responder at an incident scene can help save lives, reducing the chance of patients suffering permanent disability and providing relief from pain.
SARS receives no central government funding and relies on voluntary donations to support its activity, which has helped save countless lives over the years.
