Description
Inspired by the love of great beer and the lack of a brewery on the Gower Peninsula - the UK's first area of outstanding natural beauty - the Gower Brewery was born. Established in 2011, we are one of the fastest growing breweries in Wales. Armed with the best ingredients we can find, we pack our ales full of flavour and natural goodness and ultimately brew beers that we want to drink!

Bottle from British Local Craft. Has an aroma which is sweet and fruity. P:ours the classic “bitter brown” with a small white head and some lacing. In the mouth the first sensation is sweet fruit like strawberry jam, followed swiftly by the hop content (fairly bitter) and the alcoholic strength shows its hand. Texture is fairly sticky as well. A bittersweet finish with yet more alcohol. This is a no-nonsense old school IPA with plenty of kick to it – nice !

500ml bottle from Pontypool Tesco. Drunk in our cottage overlooking the town. Clear gold with a medium white head. Light caramelised malt aroma. Nicely balanced on the palate, fairly light bodied with gentle buttery malt, light wine gum and caramel, though could do with a little more sweetness. Fine overall.

Bottle from Daniel Tomlinson - thanks! Creamy white head stayed on a pale golden body. Fruity & faint citrus aroma. Medium bodied, creamy over the tongue with a cloying finish. Sweet citrus, peach, tangy fruit & bitter hoppy finish. Nice one!
