Description
Notes for members:-
Celt Experience and Fire Island beers should be added under those entries.
The Archers entry is for Archers beers brewed on that site up until 2009. Any beers continued to be brewed under the Archers name appear under Evan Evans brewery with an Archers prefix.
The same applies to J Buckley beers (ceased brewing in 1998), who were taken over initially by Brains, then the brand sold on to Evan Evans.
As locations go, we’re incredibly lucky. Based here in Llandeilo in West Wales, we can open the brewery doors wide and look out over the breathtaking Black Mountains. We’re as passionate about the surroundings we brew in as we are about the brewery itself. Whilst our 250-year history of brewing is at our core, we believe strongly in innovation. Evan Evans is a modern, state-of-the-art brewing plant, capable of producing around 3 million pints every year using the finest raw materials and the attention to detail that makes us who we are.

On cask at the Caley Picture House. Appearance - golden amber with a thin head. Nose - honey, light smoke and pale malt. Taste - big toffee note is the opening gambit. Them crunchy dry biscuits follow it in. Palate - close to medium bodied with a crunchy texture and a long dry crunchy finish. Overall - it’s solid and happy to drink.

Fra håndpumpe på The Mossy Well, Muswell Hill (London), mars-17: klar kobber med ok skum. Karamell, urter og frukt. Noe metallisk, snerpende bitterhet i ettersmaken.

Cask (backlog). Amber colour with a small off-white head. Aroma is caramel malts and some mild floral and resiny noyes. Flavour is floral, some grassy and wooden notes along with a mild sweet maltiness lurking in the background.

Cask-conditioned at the Commercial Rooms, Bristol October 2016. Amber in colour with a moderately sized, off-white, head. Aroma of red fruits and leafy hops. Flavour was sweetish with caramel, more fruit, biscuity malts and a moderately bitter finish. Fine.
