Description
When good friends Ray Ashworth and David Crease got tired of the same old beers, they were determined to change things up a level. With a passion for homebrewing and creating authentic flavours, they became part of a new-wave revolution, handcrafting their own beers in the 1960s.

In 1981 they founded their own brewery near Norwich and moved to a converted farm complex in the picturesque Broadland village of Woodbastwick in 1989

7.1/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 9 Flavor 6 Texture 8 Overall 6.5
Sampled cask conditioned. Deep golden coloured. Rich aromatic hoppy smell. Fruity and medium bodied. The same nice hop profile as their Norfolk Wherry Best Bitter, but more sweet and full bodied. The malt profile does not appeal to me as much.

Sampled cask conditioned. Amber coloured. Rich aromatichoppy smell. Light bodied, dry and fruity. Notes of hay, delicate light malt profile, excellent flowery, fruity hop flavour. Sparkling mouth feel. A top class bitter, remarkably flavourful for being only 3.8%
