About
Cardiff Based Craft Brewery. Making surreal beers since August 2019.
Flowerhorn Brewery was set up in the summer of 2019 by two friends, Andrew and Arran. Shortly after meeting through mutual friends and both sharing a love of all things beer Andrew landed a job in a brewery and when Arran finished university 9 months later he jumped straight in to the industry as well. Each with two years experience under their belt they began picturing and developing exactly what their ideal brewery would look like. They spent some money on a homebrew kit and started brewing in Arran’s parent’s garage.
Fast forward: Before we knew it around came our first birthday and we celebrated by picking up the keys to our brand new unit at the Bridge Studios. Currently we’re waiting for our bespoke 5bbl kit to be manufactured and delivered and in the meantime we’re continuing creating and innovating with new styles and flavours ready to serve to you in our brand new tap room before the end of the year.

Tap at Cherry Reds, Birmingham. Bright red with a small white top. The cherries add a nice fruitiness and a mid-tart sourness. The vanilla and lactose gives a smooth sessionable quality and is not overdone to be too sickly or rich. Good balance and is tasty. Soft to fine carbonation. Good.

Sample courtesy of ITFCDan, via Grumbo, cheers! Aroma of peach, pine, lemon, malt and flowers. Very earthy with a tropical fruit and malty finish. Enjoyable.

440ml can from The Drunk Monk, Wrexham. Pours pitch black with a beige ring of foam atop. Aroma is of a chocolatey persuasion. Full bodied, chocolatey, nice malt depth with a comforting roasty cuddle. Really like the artwork on these labels too, this one especially!
