Description
The Anstee family began supplying the hospitality trade in South Wales with beers, wines and spirits in the early 90’s. The knowledge and community ties established during this time gave us a real desire to see quality Welsh beer back on local bars. So much so we thought we’d brew some ourselves, starting out as the Kite Brewery in 2011. In 2015 and with our beers now winning awards and wider recognition we decided a new name was in order.

[Cask at the Belle Vue, High Wycombe] Amber with a moderate white head. Lots of lemon with a little earthy bitterness. Nice resinous mouthfeel. Decent, crisp bitter. Nice and thirst-quenching.

On gravity at the Christmas Beer Festival, The Volunteer, Bristol 15/12/2012. Deep amber with a slight, off-white head. Aroma of red fruits, caramel and a touch of leafy hop. Flavour was sweetish, with some biscuity malts, more fruit and a moderately bitter finish. Fine.

Cask at Pigs Ear. Hazy gold beer, tidy white head. Light dry palate. Middle of the road gold. Well balanced pale malt, mild citrus hop. A little dry and flirting with insipidness.
