Newest Review: ... My favourite beers were a bit head strong and you could certainly tell that you'd had them once finished. They weren't as strong as some other beers (well barley wines) that were available such as the Museum at 10.2%, Humpty Dumpty No. 10 at 9.2% and the strongest one of the festival Warthog at c. 13.5%. Whilst I did get to drink a half pint of the Humpty Dumpty No. 10 (I can't begin to ... more

Ok, so as a proper Norfolk girl I'm SLIGHTLY biased here- but I genuinely believe that Naaaridge is an amazing city. I'm away from home living in Staffordshire for uni, and as much as I love it here, the main thing I miss is the accent!

Well at least that is what the signs tell you as you enter the outskirts of Norwich. Norwich is serviced by the A11, A47 and the A140 to name the major routes. As visitors to Norfolk will know much to their disdain, Norfolk doesn't have any motorways. Good for people who don't ...
