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.

500ml bottle from Morrisons. Pours a clear brown amber with small white head, nice retention. Aroma is sweet malts, biscuit, light earthiness, chocolate. Taste is the same, sweet, biscuity, earthy, some pine, hints of chocolate, moderate grassy bitter bite. Light to medium bodied, fairly smooth. Nice beer, maybe on thing lacking is a fruity element to elevate it.
