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.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Appearance - golden with a nice fluffy head. Slight haze. Nose - geraniums, a hint of lime. Light biscuit. Taste - light floral, but then caramel biscuit takes over. Palate - close to medium bodied with a tangy finish that could be fresher. Overall - it could be fresher, alright.

At home, ordered from Beers of Europe. Piercing aroma. The booze really comes through, alongside stewed fruit, spices and liquorice. Glossy. Dark, with reddish brown highlights. The head soon disappears. Medium bitter at first, a sweet wave, before a pepper (and booze) appear in the finish. Coffee and chocolate preced vanilla cream. Creamy. Slick. A tickle of carbonation. Long astringent finish. What can I say - really enjoyed this. Went down a treat on a Sunday evening.

Cask at the Kings Head, Norwich. Pours black with a small off white head. Aroma of roasted malt, chocolate, dark fruits, light spice and alcohol. Medium sweetness and light roasted bitterness. Medium/full body and slick texture, carbonation is soft to flat. Good but was expecting something even better.
