Head brewer Phill’s love for continental beer styles, especially German beers inspired him to make a ‘proper’ lager. Moldbreaker is lagered in our brewery for 16 weeks before being bottled or kegged. This allows the lager more time to develop subtle floral notes and creates a more refined finish.
We named the beer Moldbreaker, partly for our home town and partly as we feel this lager really does show how good lager can be when done properly.

500ml bottle from Purple Moose, Betws Y Coed. Pours gold with a faint mist, white froth atop. Aroma is lightly sulphurous, herbal. Taste bears some curious off-notes that are hard to place, mild spice, strange sweetness, perhaps a hint of oxidisation. Not quite cutting it unfortunately.

500ml bottle delivered from the brewery and drunk at home. Mid- to dark gold, clear with very little head. Light grassy aroma, some papery notes and a hint of hard citrus. The taste is more engaging: Sweet with gentle woody notes, leading to a drier finish. Soft but present carbonation. Not a bad pilsner at all.

Bottle from Stori. Appearance - golden and clear. Attractive and proportionate head. Nose - light hop spice, a hint of citrus but mainly malty. Taste - more grainy this time. Again, some citrus. Palate - light bodied, fairly dry on the finish. Overall - a solid citizen.
