If you need something to wash it all down, there are a variety of local breweries producing a fine array of ales, lagers and spirits. This includes famous names, such as Lacons, and microbreweries, such as the Humpty Dumpty Brewery in Reedham.

Perhaps the most well-known of all the Broadland brewers is Woodforde’s, who produce award-winning beer in Woodbastwick, including the Broads Authority’s own Flagondry. With a range of hotels, pubs and shops supplying their ale, every visitor should be sure to sample a drop during their trip. If you’re keen to know more about the company - and try out their range - they also run regular tours of their brewery.

Founded in 1837, Bullards is another name that is synonymous with the brewing heritage of East Anglia. Richard Bullard, his son Harry and further generations supplied a range of popular beers across the region for nearly 150 years before stopping trading in the late 20th century. Fortunately for local beer-lovers they re-opened in 2015 and now offer a delicious range of modern yet traditionally inspired beers.

In nearby Southwold, Adnams has been brewing beer for at least 670 years and also run tours of their brewery and distillery where you could even get a chance to make your very own gin!
