- The predominant Woodfordes ale on offer was Wherry which was available in all these outlets, followed by Nelsons Revenge and Sundew. A few pubs did have First Bittern and there was a rare example of Norfolk Nog at Happisburgh Hill House.
- Cheapest pint of Wherry was £2.40 at The Fishing Boat in East Runton
- Most expensive pint of Wherry was £3.60 at The Plough and Sail, Snape Maltings and The Dolphin at Thorpeness
- The most interesting pub was the Three Horseshoes at Warham, a very distinctive and old fashioned hostelry that I would recommend visiting, along with our old favourite The Albatros at Wells, a unique place to sup beer and watch the tide ebb and flow.
- The pub with the largest selection of ales was The Dove Street Inn in Ipswich which included three of their own brews on offer. The Kings Head on Magdalen Street in Norwich is also worth seeking out, which always has a large selection of local ales in this back to basics pub. The Windham Arms in Sheringham always has four or five Norfolk ales on offer. The Red Lion in Cromer has dedicated their hand pumps to an ever changing selection of Norfolk and Suffolk Ales. The Hill House at Happisburgh have a good selection of guest ales.
- The Ship at Mundesley has had a refreshing change from a year ago when it only offered Green King ales. They now offer a variety of local ales including Woodfordes and Green Jack.
