Revenge is best served bittersweet. Our wholehearted harmony of hops, fruits and barley pays homage to brave Admiral Nelson and his crew. Nelson’s is a Norfolk beer, and glory in the taste and aromas of citrus and Norfolk malts we’ve crammed in.

Cask at the Alma, Cambridge. Copper brown, a bit of beige head. The pint has a reasonable amount of natural carbonation. Raisin, biscuity aroma: strong tea, malt. Sweet fruity faste with a bitter finish. Tiny hint of sourness at the very end. Good.

Bottle. Copper color. Aroma is mostly malt. Taste is bitter of course, with some burned malt and a slight touch of citra. Not bad.

Cask at Hoste Arms, Burnham Market, Norfolk. 8th July. Difficult to rate a beer that wasn’t fit to be served, but still, what do you want for the best part of 4 quid...

Bottle from M&S. Clear dark brown with small off-white head. Very spicy up front, some dried fruits, caramel, citrus, some weird candy sweetness, like the candy with many herbs in it. Medium bodied and bit light carbonation. Quite interesting stuff.

500ml bottle from M&S, as Norfolk Bitter. Pours hazy amber, might have been clearer if there weren’t a big yeast deposit around the neck. Must have been stored at a strange angle for some time. Big off-white head. Aroma is floral hops and toffee. Taste is sweet, very faint bitterness. Carbonation is a tad high. Creamy texture, medium body. Short finish. OK.
