Welsh Golden Ale. Our inspiration for this popular golden ale was the beautiful maiden Blodeuwedd from the legends of the Mabinogi which have their roots in Dyffryn Nantlle. Blodeuwedd was created from a variety of meadow flowers by the wizard, Gwydion, and those wonderful subtle, floral notes are conveyed in this glorious golden ale.

24/6/2024. Bottle bought at Vinomondo, Conwy. Pours very slightly hazy orange amber with a small frothy off-white head. Aroma is chalky, straw, citrus, grass, malt, caramel. Moderate sweetness, bitterness and body. Light body, quite carbonated. Not bad.

Bottle from Stori. Appearance - golden with a proportionate white head. Nose - grassy, lemon and barley. Taste - more lemon barley water but on the bready side. Palate - light bodied, initially creamy texture and then balanced bitterness.. Overall - good example of the style.

Bottle from Gwin Llyn Wines, Pwllheli. Golden-yellow with no head and a carbonation. Has a gentle hoppiness with some very light fruity notes but is quite undistinguished in the main.

Cask on gravity at the Great Welsh Beer Festival, Cardiff, 5/11/2015. Golden in colour, with a slight, white, head. Citrus hops, biscuity malts, a touch of fruity sweetness and moderately bitter finish. Good.
