About the Game



One year on from your world being turned upside down by Kett’s rebellion of 1549, you rediscover your grandmother’s craft of brewing. At a time where your success as an alewife could be your downfall, you vow to become Norwich’s most lauded Brewess.

  • CRAFT YOUR ALES

    Preparing your ingredients, malting your grains and serving your thirsty customers is how you earn your keep.

  • CHARM YOUR CUSTOMERS

    Coaxing your patrons into deeper conversations will reveal how they can help your business grow, offer new recipes and even possible trade routes.

  • AVOID SUSPICION

    Your reputation is everything; confuse the Bishop for the local Alderman and you could quickly find yourself accused of practising witchcraft.

  • BUILD YOUR BREWING EMPIRE

    Timing is key. Take advantage of seasonal events and soon you will be able to manage several taverns, gaining favour with the nobles.
