A light and refreshing blonde/golden ale..

Seithenyn was the keeper of the sluice gates in the fertile netherlands of Cantre’r Gwaelod between Llyn and Ceredigion. He was also a drunkard and got very merry at the king’s daughter’s wedding one day. He neglected the sea-defences, a storm came in from the west and Cantre’r Gwaelod was drowned, creating Bae Ceredigion.

50cl bottle from the Spar in Rhos on Sea. Pours golden, nicely proportioned head and a gentle but steady bubble. The nose has honey and pale malt with a nice lemon/grapefruit note that cuts through it. The taste is more of the same and I think the citrus is confirmed to being grapefruit. The palate is great - a nice balance between malt and hops with a close to medium body and a nice long zingy (but not too zingy) finish. Overall, great session beer.

Pint at The Eagles Inn, Llanuwchllyn, Wales. A surprisingly tasty pint on a rare hot day in Wales. Got a big gulp of malt at first, levelling out to a great, balanced golden blonde character. A circle of foam followed the pint to the bottom. A nice precursor to my minted Welsh lamb burger.
