Woodforde's Brewery
Woodforde's brews in Woodbastwick, Norfolk, and takes its name from Parson James Woodforde, an eighteenth-century clergyman whose diaries celebrate good food and great beer. Founded in 1981, the brewery leans on its home county: Norfolk water from beneath the brewery and Maris Otter barley shape the beers. Cask ales such as Wherry, its first beer, and Nelson's Revenge sit beside a keg range and a new seasonal every month.

How we measure this
Two thresholds are at work here:
- The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
- The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.
A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
Nelson's Revenge
Their beers place in the Top 58% of the catalogue on average, across 13 ranked beers. One clear standout well ahead of the rest.
