12:45 Having failed at the currently closed Erpingham Arms we came here. Mainly locals having lunch. Good beer choice, very friendly atmosphere, and the genuinely home-made shortcrust pies were excellent.

Adnams - Tally-Ho7.00ExceptionalLandlord saves a nine for Easter every year. He gives the cask an occasional roll to keep it working. He said that some years are better than others. This was superb. Christmas pudding raisins and sultanas. It retained its head all the way down the pint, and its freshness.
Humpty Dumpty - Red Mill4.30GoodYet again I am drinking a red ale and enjoying it.
Winter's - Golden4.10AcceptableBit hazy, turned out I had the last pint, but tasted fine.
Adnams - Broadside4.70Not Tried
Woodforde's - Wherry3.80Not Tried
