Cromer Carnival is a spectacular event, with up to 40,000 people descending on the town for its week’s long celebration, it is one of the biggest carnivals in the country. With star attractions like the Red Arrows beautiful sunshine and a seaside atmosphere it is not difficult to see why it is so popular.

2019 was the 50th anniversary and a special beer was called for, our normal IPA was revamped to produce a lovely summer session ale to enjoy on a hot summers day either in draught format or bottled.

5/7/2023. Bottle from 3at3, Ely. Pours clear bright amber with a small frothy off-white head. Aroma is smoky, malty, burnt toffee, rubber, brown bread, hints of chocolate and liquorice. Moderate sweetness and medium bitterness. Moderate body, oily, fizzy. Interesting.

330ml bottle courtesy of Grumbo, cheers Graham! Gluten Free. Deep amber colour, foamy off-white head leaving lacing and aroma of malt, fruity, earthy. Taste is smokey, malt, fruity, woody, with tangy earthy bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry metallic bitter finish. Quite drinkable.
