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 from Ludlow Food Centre, 5.0% edition. Pours a deep clear amber, frothy off-white head diminishing to a lasting ring. Aroma is of caramel persuasion. Taste is clean, caramel-forward, particularly dry with fleeting fruity moments. Ok.

Cask @ Black Boy Inn, Caernarfon. Clear golden with a small head. It's a session pale ale with a very pleasant and hoppy and mildly dry texture.
