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.

Cask at the Hope Tap, Reading. Deep gold with a light sparkle but virtually no head. A little lemon, then grassy herbal notes with a spicy kick in the crisp finish. Not bad.

Handpull cask at the Bankers Draft (JDW), Bedford. Light gold with a small and slightly loose white head. Scent of honey, oats, brown sugar, light spice, citrus. Maybe a ’breakfast golden’? Taste is sweet, slightly malty with a gentle balancing bitterness. Light body, nice carbonation. Pleasant and certainly well-made.
