Royal Norfolk Returns – A Toast to Our County

We're proud to welcome back Royal Norfolk – a golden ale brewed to celebrate the best of our beloved county, just in time for the Royal Norfolk Show 2025.

First introduced in 2022 and now a fan favourite, this limited-edition seasonal beer is crafted with Norfolk at its core. Brewed using the finest local ingredients, Royal Norfolk (4.1% ABV) bursts with bright, citrussy notes of lemon and orange peel, delivering a refreshing pint that’s perfect for summer.

This year marks the third return of Royal Norfolk, and its release is once again timed to coincide with the biggest event in the county calendar – the Royal Norfolk Show. A true celebration of community, countryside, and craft, it’s only fitting that this Norfolk-brewed beer takes pride of place.

Bruce Ash, our Brewing Manager and a proud Norfolk native, said:
“Royal Norfolk is a beer that really captures the spirit of the county – bright, balanced, and full of character. At Woodforde’s, we’re passionate about using local ingredients to bring our beers to life, and this one’s no exception. It’s fantastic to see it back on the bar – especially at the Royal Norfolk Show where we’ll be raising a glass to everything that makes Norfolk great.”

Rumour has it His Majesty has enjoyed a pint of Woodforde’s before – and if he stops by the Show this year, we’ll be ready to pour him a proper Norfolk welcome.

Royal Norfolk is available in cask to on-trade customers throughout June – but only for a limited time.
