Champion Beer of Norfolk 2010

We had a great bit of news from Norwich & Norfolk CAMRA last night.  Our Broadland Sunrise (4.2%) was voted Champion Beer of Norfolk 2010!  We are very partial to this beer, which is brewed with a combination of pale and crystal rye to liven it up and give it its sunrise-orange hue.  The judges pronounced it “Beautifully smooth with a swirling malt, hop, and fruit aroma.”
We’ve recently adopted this pumpclip for our new brewery and van livery and so are delighted for this enthusiastic recognition from the folks at CAMRA.
In addition to being named overall Champion, Broadland Sunrise was voted best Best Bitter.  Our Railway Sleeper (5.0%) was voted best Strong Bitter and Norfolk Nectar (4.6%), our beer brewed with local honey from Reedham, was voted best Speciality Beer.  What a great and unexpected set of honours for our efforts.  We are very chuffed.

We also congratulate our colleagues at Grain, Wolf, Chalk Hill, Elmtree and Norfolk Square breweries for their success in the other judging categories. This really demonstrates the quality that Norfolk’s microbreweries are delivering today.  If you have a choice, give us a look in.  If you don’t, ask your landlord for one – it’s time we do away with the beer tie and give consumers what they want at a price that’s fair to the publican.
Now, we’d better get brewing!
