16:15 Busy. None of their own beers on! Landlord/brewer recognised me from the Norwich Beer Festival and came over for a chat. The lack of beer was down to a wild yeast infection in a brew of the Lightweight. He had tapped one and left it soft spiled and it was still working. I asked for and got a taster.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Waveney - Lightweight | 3.90 | | I am judging the wild yeast version rather the proper one. The beer was superb. Excellent condition and clarity. Dry. Only negative factor was lack of body as full fermentation was under way. It had the characteristics of a geuze. The Silver Fox was sweet in comparison. |
| Wolf - Silver Fox | 4.60 | | |
| Everards (see entries against Joule's & Robinsons whilst its new brewery was being built) - Tiger | 4.20 | Not Tried | |
| Wolf - Wolf In Sheep's Clothing | 3.70 | Not Tried | |
| Banks's - Young's London Original (was Bitter) - previously brewed in Bedford and at Wychwood | 3.70 | Not Tried |

Traditional village pub. L shaped bar, 4 handpumps, several drinking areas, real fire, piano. Pump clips on ceiling above bar show the various guest beers. Red tiled floor. Excellent traditional village local. Pool table in a side room.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Waveney - East Coast Mild | 3.80 | | Very deep ruby, lasting beige head. Very choccy, velvety, milky aroma. Decent condition in mouth, smooth, velvety choccy mild, some sweetish damson fruit. It's certainly tasty and smooth, some dryness on end. Little bit one dimensional. Little bit of toffee. |

Busy village local with an old world feel to it. The pub is home to the Waveney brewery.

| Waveney - East Coast Mild | 3.80 | Not Tried | Had a few sips of Ian's. Loved it. Reminded me of Goacher's mild with its easy drinking smooth roasted feel. |
