Winner of the Bitters Class at the CAMRA Champion Beer of Wales for the Third Year running.
A pale amber beer, well hopped, best described as a traditional south-eastern bitter. A complex malt grist is combined with three hops; Fuggles, Goldings and First Gold to provide a refreshing moorish beer, with a distinct hoppy bitterness.
|
Voted the Champion Beer of Wales, 2004/5 by a blind tasting panel at the Great Welsh Beer and Cider Festival.
A deep, golden coloured beer created using three types of Optic malt and only Progress hops, all grown within the UK. This single varietal ale has all the characteristics of this 'soft' hop: floral notes and a gentle but pervasive bitterness, making it a very drinkable and thirst quenching beer.
|
An unusually red coloured beer, blending the red ale traditions of the North East and Ireland with a hint of Welsh flair. Vast quantities of Crystal malt are blended into a complex grist; and a selection of unusual hops, including Pioneer and 93/50, provide the bite to compliment the biscuity malt charactersitics of this exceptionally smooth and easy drinking beer
|
Dark amber, malty and well hopped with a beautifully balanced aftertaste; a strong Best Bitter. High percentages of Crystal and Black Malt create the malt/biscuit undertones; bitterness and aroma are provided by Goldings and First Gold amongst others.

A very pale straw coloured Best Bitter, brewed with Bramling Cross, Northdown and Challenger hops for a hugely aromatic and refreshing experience.
|
Thomas Jones (1530-1609), also known as Twm Sion Cati, was a famous Highwayman, also known as the Welsh Robin Hood. Having won a pardon from Queen Elizabeth I he moved to Brecon where he wooed and married the daughter of Sir John Price of the Priory and became the Mayor of Brecon. This 4.0% dark copper coloured bitter celebrates the 400th Anniversary of his death, and is a beer that is as full of flavour and character as the man himself! 4.0% abv
