Description
Monty’s Brewery is based just a short distance from the ancient castle town of Montgomery, on the Powys - Shropshire border. Monty’s Brewery was founded in 2008 by husband and wife team Russ and Pam Honeyman since then they have established the brewery as one of the leading breweries in Wales. Producing beers of many styles, with a focus on gluten free and low alcohol beers the brewery prides itself on its range having won many awards.

In this new world of sustainability and with a focus on the environment Monty’s is driving towards a more sustainable process. In the brewery we heat the water for each brew from the previous brew through plate heat exchangers, all helping to keep our carbon footprint down as much as we can. We don’t use any plastic in our packaging, and our waste grain, feeds local cattle, our first and last beer run-ins which would be a waste product are fed to a herd of Welsh Wagyu.

Cask at Shrewsbury Arms, Stafford. Pours a very dark reddish-brown with a small cream head and a little lacing. Not much of an aroma – just some hints of dried fruit. In the mouth it is quite bitter but with some underlying sweetness and a creamy texture. Flavour has roast malts, chocolate and hints of fruit cake. After a while, some bitter coffee grounds come through plus traces of dark fruits and oats. Finish is a little sticky. This is quite nice.
