This amber IPA is brewed using the finished North American hops to combine bitterness and fruitiness which gives a well balanced full flavoured IPA.
Draft version is 4.5%
Brewed especially for the Bronze Age Beer festival that was held in Nefyn to celebrate a 3,500 brewing trough that was found beneath the sand and clay on Porth Neigwl (hells Mouth) beach. Today the beach is a popular surfing destination.

500ml bottle (at 5%ABV) from Wally's in Cardiff. BBE June 2022. Drank at home on 14th September 2021. Enjoyed this, an uncomplicated IPA with enough going on to be interesting throughout. Golden amber body, clean and clear; white head. Floral and resinous aroma, malts come into play in the flavour. No citrus fruits or citrus flavoured hops were hurt in the brewing of this beer.
