Originally named after the Colman's mustard factory's steam tug of bygone years, re-furbished and re-opened in 2012 as a sister pub to the Fat Cat and Fat Cat Brewery Tap (as was, now The Brewery Tap), under the same ownership, and in the same style.

About a mile and a half from the centre of the city, the pub serves several of the Fat Cat brewery's ales, and guests from around the UK, together with continental beers and real ciders.

There is a small TV to the rear of the main bar, a large car park and terraces to the front and rear, the latter being heated. Home-made rolls are available, with roasts on Sundays (September - April) and meals most Friday evenings.

Information for this venue is provided by the Norwich & District Branch of CAMRA
