This will coincide with the launch of a new beer brewed by the Yalm team at Ampersand – a hazy pale ale called 1899.

Dan Searle, operations manager at Yalm said, "Norwich City of Ale is a great celebration of good beer in the city and our space lends itself lends itself brilliantly to being a beer hall." 

Alongside this, there will be two-pint steins of imported German beers, a craft beer quiz in collaboration with city retailer The Beer Hatch and a weather-dependent outdoor bar.
