Norwich pubs, beers and breweries: Whatās not to love?
They often say that āyou do anything for the people and things you loveā.
For me. If I had to pick, Iād highlight football, my favourite Chinese takeaway, my girlfriend Poppy, former Ipswich Town striker Shefki Kuqi, and my Mediterranean tortoise named Coco as some of the most valuable things in my life. Not in that order I might add!
Oh. I almost forgot. Cask ale, often known as āreal aleā or āale from the hand-pumpā, is mostly certainly now in the upper reaches of that adorable list. You see, my taste buds have strayed from the mainstream lagers in the last few years, and cask ale is now known as my ānew loveā that I seemingly canāt go anywhere without!
Especially on celebratory events like Valentineās Day. Days full of laughter and fun and days to cherish and remember. Valentineās Day 2020 was therefore spent trying to please, and spend valuable time with, the people and things that matter the most! OK, Iām not Superman, and didnāt manage to fit everyone / everything in, but Iād say that attending a Beer Festival with more than 60 ales to choose from was the perfect setting for Valentineās Eveš!
Of course, I didnāt go on this quest alone. If I had to guess some of Poppyās āpriority listā, Iād go for: exploration, visiting new places, sightseeing, culture, food, wine, socialising, travelling, shopping, talking, and Pickled Onion Monster Munch š¾. Hopefully Iād be somewhere in there too!
Norwich was the chosen location for our Valentineās getaway. Norwich. Home of Colmanās Mustard. Home of The Cathedral. Home of The Canaries: Norwich City FC š”š¢. The Canaries. Oh how Ipswich used to beat them regularly and proudly perch as the āpride of East Angliaā. But such dreams are now a distant memory for many increasingly-poignant Ipswich fans like myself, and come to think of it, I donāt know if Iāll ever get the chance to cheer on the Tractor Boys š in another āOld Farm Derbyā again! Such is the current demise and perilous position of the boys in blue and whiteĀ šµāŖ. Ā
But, āforget the football for once,ā I told Poppy. It was time to explore a beautiful, cultural, vibrant and historic city blessed with an array of fantastic shops, market stalls, and of course pubs and breweries. Our getaway was planned at the very last minute ā and Norwich was perfect for our plans and interests. I think the conversation in the car on the way to work on the Monday went something like āShall we do something for Valentineās Day this year?ā Four days later and weāre living our best life. After all, they often say: āLive in the momentā, ālife is for laughingā, ātreat yourselfā etc.
Talking of treats. Naturally, a treat = beer. The airport beer. The shower beer. The hotel balcony beer. The kitchen beer while sheās getting ready. The straight to the pub from work beer. The Sunday afternoon beer garden beer. The Friday before Christmas beer. There are so many great beers everywhere. Especially, in Norwich where a plethora of tasty, excellent beers are produced by Norfolk breweries and then sold in great numbers at various watering holes across the city. Ā
One of which, the Georgian Townhouse, was where we were lucky enough to stay. With an excellent choice of boutique bedrooms and luxury apartments, the Georgian Townhouse offers a truly unique retreat in a glorious setting in the heart of the city ā and Iād highly recommend it. Boasting a Roberts Revival digital radio š», a Smeg fridge and a Nespresso machine ā , we were in some kind of hotel heaven when we unpacked our bags. Blimey! Heaven turned into paradise when we saw the size of the humongous bath in the en-suiteš. I thought about going swimming at one stage š !
But thatās not it. The fantastic Georgian Townhouse staff even presented us with two local beers from St Andrews Brewhouse ā Wensum Ale, a best bitter, and Grocers Ghost Pale Ale (more on those later) ā to sample on arrival. And with a small bottle of champagne, and a bunch of freshly picked, roaring red roses that definitely were not bought from Tesco (how did they even get there!?), the scene was set for a cracking couple of days!
And a cracking couple of days were had. Starting with dinner in the restaurant: Delicious roast chicken served with coleslaw, chips and salad. Just what the doctor ordered.Ā
The service was also very good ā and after scanning my QR code to record my visit on the CaskFinder App ā significant interest in the App generated as some members of staff wanted to become ābeer expertsā by vowing to learn all of the tasting-notes for the 10,000 beers on show! I opted to wash dinner down with two lovely pints of Woodfordeās Wherry. A beer that has grown on me in recent times, with its delicious citrus aftertaste going down very well indeed.
From here, we took the mutual decision to move onto The Trafford Arms for the Valentine Beer Festival! With Storm Ciara beginning her windy, wet warm up, and the choice of 60+ beers to look forward to, itās fair to say that Poppy was not the most enthused on the chilly walk through the housing estates en route to The Trafford. In fact, Iād say she was uncharacteristically quiet. Which really is a rarity! But that soon changed as we entered the pubās welcoming doors. Bingo! Their Cask Marque certificate greeted us at the door. After registering the visit on the CaskFinder App, it soon became apparent that we were to make this public house our home for the next few hours.
Of course, Iād done my research, and found that the Valentine Beer Festival was a popular annual, week-long event. With a huge variety of beers ranging in appearance and ABV%, as well as live music, whatās not to love about it really? So as Poppy sipped on her fruit-filled gin nā tonic, I tested my taste buds. All while listening to the dulcet tones of The Rum Dogs, who, in their own words, perform āfunky, folk music with humour and passionā.
If I had to pick a ābeer of the nightā, Iād go for Ampersandās āOn the wingā, a hop forward pale session ale brewed with oats and heaps of late Amarillo, Citra, Ekuanot & El Dorado hops. But I wasnāt alone in trying new beers. The pub had a very friendly, absorbing vibe about it, and it was great to see it packed full of drinkers ā young, old, male and female ā all testing their taste buds and indulging in some beautiful cask ales.
We were sad to leave The Trafford, armed with our packets of Salt & Vinegar crisps to detract our attention away from a strengthening Ciara, but will certainly aim to visit again. I believe the Beer Festival continued to be a hit ā and, whisper it quietly, I think beers were being served at Ā£2 a pint towards the end! Weāll definitely be back if thatās the case!
After a well-deserved sleep (this drinking business can be tiring), we went down to breakfast ā the most important meal of the day. Apparently! We were not left disappointed. There was plenty of choice: from cereal and fruits to pastries and yoghurts to cooked meals, the menu was expansive ā and partnered with excellent customer service. Personally, I opted for a few slices of cantaloupe melon ā after demolishing a freshly-cooked Full English that smelt as good as it looked! Ā
This set us up perfectly for the dayās activities, and, as avid believers of living life on the edge, we just immersed ourselves in the beautiful, windy Norwich lanes, streets, and marketplace. We bought a few birthday gifts (happy 23rd to my sister Ellie), and enjoyed our time stumbling across many a hidden gem ā including Chef Ronās Kitchen and Romanās Juice Bar, who really sold us their appetising pizza slicesš and tasty smoothiesš„¤.
After eyeing up quirky rugs, lampshades, and other home essentials, we then fell upon FREE ping pong and table football inside Castle Quarter. Which was an absolute game-changer! Unfortunately, the table tennis was so popular that we didnāt have the patience to wait, so Poppyās interest and undenied passion for āthe beautiful gameā intensified even further when she challenged me to an encounter of table football. And, after a comically entertaining match, which saw the Ipswich Town Blues defeat a Norwich team, playing in their red away kit, 10-5, I fully expect our game to be shown first on Match of the Day this weekend. Shefki Kuqi top scored (thereās only one f in Shefki) with eight of Ipswichās 10 goals. If only these dreams became a realityā¦
In all seriousness, both facilities are well-maintained and are cracking ideas. In a world being domineered by iPhones and other such technological advances, they offer a great opportunity for family members and friends to enjoy one anotherās company ā and with a competitive element thrown in too. Hey, I won lunch! Wake me up, Iām dreaming againā¦ Talking of lunch, once our match, which included full-match commentary, much to the amusement of several passers-by, reached its conclusion, the quest for good food and drink was on. In my book, the clock striking 1pm means only one thing: beer time! As we all know, shopping can be tiring and can work up an appetite so it was imperative we found a place that could satisfy our bodies and minds.
Step forward, St Andrews Brewhouse! Itās easy to see why this brewery-turned-pub is regarded as one of the best food and drink establishments in Norwich. Home to their very own microbrewery, which produce some amazing beers, St Andrews Brewhouse is a real favourite among Norwich folk with their popular restaurant, bar area, and functions room nearly always fully populated.
See it for yourself here:
youtube
In my opinion, one of the best things about pubs is the range of people they attract. People-watching is also a proven, favourite past-time of the human race! The guy sitting by the window at St Andrews Brewhouse with just a book and a beer for company looked like he was having a great time. As did the three suitcase-carrying friends hungry for a good meal after landing from their holidays. Of course, Poppy and I were probably seen by others as āthe Valentinesā ā enjoying one anotherās company, alongside the superb Macaroni Cheese and two pints of lovely Wensum Ale ā a best bitter with a sweet, malty and fruity finish. Spot on.
And, as we made our way out, hand-in-hand, looking for the next stop in our exciting jaunt, Poppy declared that āthe St Andrews Brewhouse is one of the best pubs Iāve been in; I loved itā. And Iād have to agree. Good food. Good beer. Good times. Itās simply a must-visit! Add it to your Norwich bucket list!
It was then by complete accident, that after crossing the bridge on St Georges Street, that we found the Playhouse Bar! Again, Miss Brown wasnāt overly keen when I suggested that we gave it a look as āitās differentā. But, again, her opinion quickly changed when we set foot inside! The adjectives quirky, funky, and mesmerising are ones Iād used to describe a unique bar setting and atmosphere! Playhouse Barās ceiling is a colourful collection of artworks portraying a city scape.Ā
The project was started in 2011 by members of bar staff, many of whom are former art students. Art was probably my worst subject at school, but I had a serious case of āceilingopolisā! We couldnāt help but stare at the ceiling ā and managed to find The Olympic Stadium, an IKEA and Jurassic Park ā to name but a few places of interest on top of us. Itās certainly very interesting and worth a visit. The sucker fish was entertaining too. I wonder what heās seen ā and forgotten ā in his lifetime. In all honesty, we couldāve stayed people and ceiling-watching for hoursā¦
It was at the Ribs of Beef where our journey ended ā obviously after taking some selfies and photo-bombing one another first.
I opted to try a trio of tasty local beers to round up ā and was not left disappointed with some fruitful tasting beers from Lacons, Wolf and Moon Gazer Ales cleansing the palette perfectly. Norfolk is the home of these fine breweries ā and it was fantastic to see each of the pubs I visited support local breweries.
Thatās the thing. Norwich really is a community of beers, breweries, and pubs. Partnerships between all will certainly heighten in May, when the 10thĀ Norwich City of Ale Festival officially opens. An 11-day celebration of some of Norwichās finest pubs, and the regionās excellent brewers, City of Ale 2020 promises to be packed with Ale Trails and fun events to keep consumers entertained. I really canāt wait for it to begin! Thursday, May 21 to Sunday, May 31. Save the dates! Plan the action! Come and see what Norwich has to offer.
With a handful of the 45 pubs involved in City of Ale also being Cask Marque accredited, they appear on the CaskFinder Appās āWorldās Biggest Ale Trailā. May 2020 seems the perfect time to tick off a few pubs yet to visit and a few beers yet to try! The never-ending, full-of-fun, beer adventure just keeps continuingā¦

Early mash in on a beautiful chilly winter day. Walking my dog during the mash ... trying to mash some organic cocoa nibs with the malts to get extra flavor. Itās a amber malts with 20% eichenrauch malt e.g. oaksmoke malts, and I thought a bit of smoke, a bit of chocolate and then ret it on raspberries in primary might work out ... recipe to follow later in the day, gotta create a hop schedule first #spicebeer #craftbeerlove #speidelsbraumeister #homebrew #homebrewing #homebrewery #homebrewers #homebrewingbeer #homebrewingonly #chocolatbeer #beerexperiments #sunnywintermornings #shadowimages #dogsofinstagram #dogwalk #winterishere (hier: Magden, Switzerland) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsNMJuaAqBh/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1u10gbynlq74r

Adnams - What a story!
Give the gift of the perfect present
Buying gifts for loved ones often comes with its challenges.
Christmas presents. Birthday presents. Valentineās Day treats. Mother and Fatherās Day gifts. It can be hard to decide what to buy. And stressful, laborious, and expensive.
I mean, weāve all been there havenāt we? Wrong style. Wrong colour. Wrong size. No warranty. No refunds. And while vouchers can be seen as boring and too safe, we can easily insult and upset the ones we care about by not putting enough thought or effort in.
Good presents in my opinion are ones that are appreciated, ones that excite, and ones that offer things to look forward to. Ā
People like adventure, challenge, and experienceā¦ Step forward, the Adnams Brewery Tour!
If you have an interest in beer (who doesnāt?), I highly recommend booking up this gem of a gift. Which is exactly what I did for my old chap.
Maturing taste buds and award-winning beers
The change in my taste buds, from lager to āreal aleā, has been duly noted by my dad ā and in recent years, we have spent many an evening together sipping on Adnamsā award-winning beers. And while Broadside tops the tasting palette for him, itās Ghost Ship for me ā but there are plenty of other tasty beers that also tickle our fancy. Mosaic. Ease Up. Bitter. Lighthouse. Explorer. Blackshore Stout. Dry Hop. And even the more exotic choices in Earl Grey and Cucumelon Sour. Weāve sampled a fair fewā¦ Ā
At the end of the day, I suppose we are just a couple of olā Suffolk boys that love drinking quality beer now and again! And so, the Brewery Tour was the perfect, ultimate Christmas gift. āSunday Funday in Southwoldā we called it. Cawād a Hell buh, the missus came along as well: the more the merrier!
Our excellent tour guide, Rob Denny, was absolutely superb throughout. He made us feel very welcome from the start, answered all questions thrown at him, and also held a popular taster session that everyone enjoyed at the end!
Brewing liquor, tasty samples, and growing beer in coat pockets!
One of the first things Rob asked us was āWhich four main ingredients make up beer?ā āWater,ā answered one enthusiastic tour goer. āCorrect,ā Rob replied. āMore commonly known as brewing liquor in the industry.ā I liked that reply. Canāt beat a good bit of brewing liquor! Yeast, malted barley, and hops are the other three answers as he talked us through the interesting brewing process (more on that later).
Good Tours include interaction ā and samples. And we were lucky enough to experience both at Adnams. Adnams work closely with a number of local maltsters and we got the chance to taste some of the malt used to make some of our favourite beers. Handfuls of rye and pale ale malt were very tasty indeed ā but just a word of warning, if youāre not a coffee drinker / fan, do not get overexcited (like I did) when you hear the word āchocolateā being briefed! I slightly overpoured my take, much to the amusement of Poppy, and had to sneak several grains into my coat pocket! Sorry, Rob!
Ghost Ship: a spooky tale or two!
As we moved through the Tour, taking in the sights and smells of the Mash Tun, the Whirlpool and the Fermentation Vessels, we learned that Ghost Ship, Adnamsā best selling beer and biggest commercial winner, was originally only meant to be a three-month trial! Thankfully, this decision was reviewed after the āhauntingly good pale aleā proved hugely popular after its release in Halloween 2010 ā and it now proudly leads the line in a number of Adnams pubs up and down the country. Life without Ghost Ship would be simply unthinkable! Now just to get Spindrift and Early Grey back on kegā¦
Rob also gave us the chance to smell some of the hops, which add delicious, unique flavours and aromas to the beer during the brewing process. Intense citrus aromas wafted through the air as we put our noses to āCitraā ā one of the most sought after hops in the brewing industry. Rumour has it that Citra made its way over to the UK, from the US, via Adnamsā Ghost Ship ā such is the extreme power of citrus given off!Ā
Citra is also used in Ghost Ship 0.5%. Zero to low percentage beers are proving mightily popular in an ever-growing market. In fact, Adnams recently had to double its production of the low alcohol Ghost Ship. And I must say Iām impressed ā the same great taste is produced, but thereās the added bonus of waking up without the hangover the next day too...They offer the perfect solution to driving as well! Ā
The contrast and challenge of ABV
At the other end of the ABV scale is Broadside ā Adnamsā dark ruby red beer which takes its name from the famous āBattle of Sole Bayā sea battle in 1672. Boasting rich and malty fruitcake flavours, Broadside is brewed differently in cask (4.7%) from bottles (6.3%) because of two main reasons: price and ABV. Generally speaking, the higher the ABV, the more expensive the beer will be in the pub. Adnams have therefore adapted the recipe to make it more āsellableā in pubs. Itās also very rare to see high percentage beers in pubs ā as they must be consumed very carefully! Makes sense, right?
Adnams all over the world!
One thing I was surprised at was the size of the brewery. I thought it would have been bigger seeing as how rapidly the Adnams name and brand is growing locally, nationally and worldwide! Not only do they own 44 pubs, inns and hotels, they also work closely with 1,000 free trades pubs and bars in East Anglia and 4,000 pubs nationally. They also export to more than 22 countries around the world, with their beers available to try in Abu Dhabi, Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Chile, China, Colombia, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Italy, Japan, New Zealand, Northern Ireland, Norway, Russia, Singapore, Spain, Slovenia, South Korea, Switzerland, Sweden, and USA. Look out for them the next time youāre on your travels!
Being Southwold and proud: a sign of success
All things considered, Adnams are doing a sterling job. Itās been reported that their turnover is in excess of Ā£80m a year and they produce more than 34 million pints of beer and 250,000 bottles of spirits per annum ā an extraordinary number seeing as they only brew and distill during the week.
They are also extremely proud of their Southwold roots ā and this video perfectly highlights what they are all about and what they are looking to achieve moving forward:

Southwold is a beautiful seaside town in the heart of Suffolk, blessed with a beautiful sandy beach and a promenade of colourful beach-huts. Itās a very attractive and desirable place to live - and brew beer! The first beer produced on site was apparently in 1345 ā nearly 700 years ago! It was in 1872 that Adnams was founded. Brothers George and Ernest Adnams bought the brewery from Sole Bay and to this day, alongside the Loftus family, who joined the business in 1802, it remains an independent family business. Current chairman, Jonathan Adnams OBE, has had a massive impact in driving the company forward in terms of innovation and sustainability: two elements Adnams look set to focus on in the future.Ā
And while thereās no doubting that the Adnams story is a resounding success, things havenāt always been straightforwardā¦
From cranky crocodiles to āthe beast from the yeastā
Rumour has it that George was eaten by a crocodile in 1880 after moving to South Africa. 140 years on and weāre still waiting for a snappy beer to be released in his memoryā¦
More recently, an overflow in the fermentation vessel meant that yeast escaped its home and started chasing employees down the stairs! How we giggled when Rob told us that story. But brewing is like a scientific experiment I suppose ā and it was also fascinating to hear of brewers throwing in malted loafs of bread to the mix. Trying different things to produce more great beers.
It is also the second most easterly UK brewery. Lowestoft-based Green Jack hold that prestigious award ā and I can confirm, from testing a few samples in The Engineers Arms, Leiston, that both Gone Fishing and Trawlerboys Best Bitter are two exceptional drops worth trying!
A rum owd dew!
The beer sampling after the Tour was a joy to behold. Rob was a fantastic host and there was a great variety of scrumptious beers to sample. Cask. Keg. Cans. Bottles.
Of course, there was still time to (literally) sprint to the shop before it closed. Which is also very impressive. Boasting an array of their beers, spirits, and wines ā as well as other merchandise, Adnams now have 13 retail stores in the UK. These are mainly based in Suffolk coastal towns ā and I couldnāt help but purchase an inviting six-pack of award-winning beers for a very reasonable Ā£10. Heck! We even received a free bottle of our choice as part of the Tour as well. After trying it for the first time with Robās guidance, I opted for a Blackshore Stout to go alongside my six-pack!
There was even time to visit The Lord Nelson. Situated close to the seafront, āThe Nelsonā is just one of several fantastic, bustling pubs serving Adnamsā award-winning beers, wines, and spirits. Happy days. Ā
All in all, we had a wonderful time, and in my opinion, the Tour is well worth the Ā£20. Thank you Rob and thank you Adnams. Book it up. Now! By visiting: https://www.adnams.co.uk/experiences/1
Whatās next for Adnams? Well, rumour has it that collaborative brews are in the pipeline, alongside celebrations to mark the 10-year anniversary of the Copper House Distillery, which has now won more than 100 awards. We might have to take up the offer of visiting again soon. Adnams. What a story.

Wild yeast elderflower pale ale experimenting... no yeast added, just 1kg of fresh elderflowers, bugs included. I might want to filter this after primary šno mazerating 48h in the sun, the going with airlock to basement. #homebrew #homebrewing #beerexperiment #dohomebrew #elderflowerbeer #wildyeastbeer #wildyeast #saisonbeer (hier: Magden, Switzerland)
