Great store, great informative friendly staff. Tons of beer fridges. American, Canadian stuff. And of course bottles of mead if you just wanna chill out. Welsh mead!

Bottle thanks to cagarvie.
Appearance - brown to black and opaque. Thin beige head.
Nose - coffee beans, then chocolate at the back.
Taste - more coffee, this time like milky coffee and chocolate at the back. No honey to speak of.
Palate - almost medium bodied, a bit thin but to be expected at the ABV.
Overall - decent.

Bottle thanks to cagarvie. Pours dark brown to black with a thin beige head. Aromas of coffee as expected. Taste brings the oats and a sweetness that might be honey I guess. Thin finish.

Can from Hanley Farm Shop, near Chepstow. A dull pale gold brew with a light to middling fizz. The fresh and vibrant elderflower up front is lovely, but the honey behind is too sweet to go with it. With a drier mead this may have been really rather good; as it was I still enjoyed the elderflower but the underlying sweetness did feel like it was dissolving my teeth by the end. Nevertheless, the low ABV keeps it very drinkable. Overall quite ok.
gave a cheers!
