Established in 2013, we support the local economy and are passionate about the culture, history and language of Dyffryn Nantlle – the land of the Mabinogi. Every beer we brew is named after characters from the world-famous Welsh folklore legends, with elements of those characters conveyed in the unique character of each beer.
The business is evolving constantly, and by now we supply pubs across North Wales with casks and pubs, shops and restaurants all over Wales and beyond with bottles. In addition, we sell directly from the brewery and attend various events with our mobile bar, as well as supplying beer for events including weddings and celebrations of all kinds.

Moderate sweetness and medium bitterness. Medium body, slightly oily, average carbonation. Tasted good, much better than the aroma.

Bottle from Stori. Appearance - amber with a quickly disappearing head. Nose - caramel and cereal. Taste - nittiness again this time. Overall, a Hobnob biscuit feel to this. Palate - light to medium bodied. Tangy, creamy and a little sweet. Overall - a solid citizen. There are a lot of beers quite similar to this kicking about.

Bottle from Gwin Llyn Wine Shop, Pwllheli. Amber with a copper glow and next to no head. Gritty hoppy tasting as there's good grainy, and some bread notes to be found within. Has a mild sweetness in its nose.
