Lacons Brewery is an independent brewery in Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, England. Its brewing history traces to 1640, with the business operating under the Lacon family name by 1760. It closed in 1968 after an acquisition by Whitbread, then was revived in 2013 by brewer Mick Carver, who recovered the brewery's original yeast culture and historic recipes.
