One of Norwich’s biggest beer festivals gets under way this week with dozens of different drinks to try.  

Tapfest is back for its eleventh anniversary on Thursday with daily live music and more than 100 beers on offer. 

The Brewery Tap in Lawson Road has enough beer to serve 10,000 pints to thirsty punters.

A spokesman for the festival said: “The Norwich Beer Festival usually held at St Andrew's Hall in October will be missed by everyone. 

"So if you want a chance to try an exciting lineup of beer, come along to Tapfest. 

“We’ve been working tirelessly at presenting and showcasing the best breweries available for our customers.”

Visitors can expect to sip at a range of first pours, limited editions, one-offs, funky sours and boozy slushies across the four-day event which ends on Sunday. 

The festival's themed fancy-dress days will encourage guests to switch off from the real world and dress as if they're bound for boozy Hawaiian beach parties, animal safaris and even Disneyland - with bonus points for dogs dressed in accompanying costumes.
