Thuck Phat left this review about The Norfolk Bottle Shop

The Norfolk Bottle Shop (previously The Real Ale Shop) is situated on a malting barley farm with it's own, small brewery, Malt Coast. The setting is therefore rural and not readily accessible by public transport. We cycled.
The bottle shop itself and surrounding buildings are former farm buildings with plenty of character. Inside the bottle shop is a wide array of mainly local beer with a small selection of wine and spirits.
There is another building next door which can be used for sampling as well as a pleasant outside space.
Wood fired pizzas are offered during the summer and, inevitably, opening hours vary but they are updated on the website and are currently (October) 11am to 5pm from Wednesday to Sunday.
On our visit there were 4 handpumps operating in the bottle shop serving Malt Coast Pale Ale, Amber Ale, IPA and Session IPA. We tried all four with all going down well especially the IPA.
A different and quirky spot to stock up on bottles and have a couple whilst doing so.
