St Andrews Brew House, Norwich

I couldn't remember much about this place, as I'd visited towards the end of a session in Norwich previously. This time, it was just 3rd on my list of pubs. So, I got a better idea of its true nature. My previous visit had been early evening, when I recall it having mainly drinkers. Our lunchtime visit found mainly diners, especially in a lower level area. We contented ourselves with propping up the bar. Although there may have been more seating on upper levels. Rather disappointingly, there were none of the in-house St Andrews beers on. The 4 available were Adnams Ghost Ship & Barsham Spicy Old Santa, Norfolk Topper & Golden Close IPA. I avoided the Christmas beer and opted for the Norfolk Topper, which was nothing particularly special. This place feels much more like a restaurant than a bar these days and with a depleted selection of ales, I'm surprised that it is still included in the Good Beer Guide considering the plethora of excellent pubs in Norwich.
