About
Humpty Dumpty Brewery was founded in 1998 in Reedham, Norfolk, and moved to its current location on Church Road in 2001. We take our name from the GER Class T-19R steam locomotives that operated on the Norwich – Lowestoft line in the early 20th Century.

The brewery operates an 11-barrel brewplant and produces a wide range of award-winning real ales.

We are now a well-established multi-award winning microbrewery in the heart of the Norfolk Broads delivering cask and bottled real ales to pubs and other outlets across East Anglia.

Many thanks to Erzengel for sharing! Pours dark brown to black with a mid-sized most good lasting beige head. Aroma of sweet chocolate, dark brown malt, some caramel. Taste of dark roasted malt, bitter coffee beans, vanilla, caramel, nice!

Black color with a fine beige top. Good intensity in the aroma. Medium (+) body and a soft carbonation level. Tad sweet. A rare mix of peat, licorice, fruity, coffee and roast. Not really my beer. But still a decent one.

Clear pale golden color with ehh no head. Ok lacing. Mild intensity in the aroma. Medium (-) body and a soft carbonation level. Tad sweet and a moderate bitterness. Caramel malty, mild herbal and mild fruity flavor. Rather dull and boring stuff. Quite hopeless.

Smooth mild beginning. Fresh and roasted, not too deep. Neutral bitter, roasted caramel. Moderate sweetness, espresso with sweetish malty hints. Nice though.

Cask at the Market Porter, Borough. Vague doughy floral aroma. Bright gold. Good thick bubbly head. Initially a very light bitterness, which peaks in intensity into the finish. Underlying maltyness. The lightness of the body is matched by its softness. Gets slicker. Astringent finish. Another bland bitter.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Appearance - golden amber with a nice fluffy head. Nose - orange and biscuit. Taste - dried orange then wholemeal bread. Light astringent malt on the finish. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture. The finish is dry but perhaps verging on too astringent. Overall - decent but slightly astringent.

Bottle shared with Ashton McCobb. Pours clear orange gold with a thick bubbly white head. Aromas of yeast funk and oranges, brown bread. Taste is dry, bready, no fruit on the taste. Very dry finish.

Cask at Kings Head in Norwich, shared with friends. Deep dark brown body. Filmy layer. Dotted spots on the glass. Aroma of dried fruits and roasted malts. Rather rich dark fruity flavours, coffee, tobacco and liquorice. Roasted mid-bitter finish. Well bodied. Pleasant with sipper qualities (18.02.2017).

By gravicask at Chelmsford & Mid Essex Winter Beer Festival. Shared with Cunningham. Almost jet black body, naked at the surface. Brown dough on the nose. Dark chocolate flavours added by a peaty touch. Nicely roasted bitterness to the ending. Medium bodied. Pleasant (17.02.2017).

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Appearance - golden amber with a nice fluffy head. Nose - sulphur, and perhaps something funky. Taste - more of the same. Palate - well, I’ve implied it all above. Overall - I’m not sure this is how the brewer intended.
