Description
We started as a 2 man outfit in 2009 as a ‘cuckoo’ brewery, borrowing someone else’s kit (Whittingtons) to make our beers and selling across South Wales and the Marches to anyone we could convert. By 2013, we’d raised enough cash to move to our own brewery in Raglan, Monmouthshire, which we’ve called home ever since!

Here at the Untapped Brewing Company, we make a wide range of great, award winning real ales to suit every taste. From the light and hoppy to the rich and intense, every beer lover will find something here to send them home happy!

Bottle shared in London - thanks to Daniel. Pours clear gold with a creamy, off-white head. The nose is a little bland, kind of leafy, with nips of hay. Light sweet flavor with a bit of lemony hops, hay, pale grass. Light bodied with lively carbonation. A bit of lemon in the finish, pale bread, more leafy hops. So so.

Wakefield Beer Festival. Gold with a very thin head. Has a malty-wheat aroma with a more genuine wheat beer taste, although clearly ale in texture.

Wakefield Beer Festival. Very dark reddy-brown. Has a caramel smooth texture and a sugary sweetness. There’s a hint of nut in its aftertaste.

Bottle from the Hop Pocket near Hereford. A volcanic gusher on opening; in the glass it eventually settled to reveal an attractive, if rather fizzy, deep copper beer with a large Mr Whippy head floating on top. There’s chocolate up front, plenty of roasty maltiness, a little walnut and a mild earthiness. Pretty pleasant bar an aftertaste that has a little granite and metal in it. Nevertheless, not a bad beer at all.

500ml bottle from Newport Food Festival ’13. Has quite tame wheat flavours compared to the German greats, with a lighter body and not as hazy in texture. But then I guess that’s what Untapped want, a nice easy going wheat with a pleasant fragrance that has you ordering another before you know it.

Pigs Ear. Clear gold beer, little white head. Weird! Sweet malts with German style nuttiness plus something herbal that reminds me of that stuff they stick in yer gob at the Dentist.
