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.

Flaske fra Det gode brygg, Sandnes: klar gylden med fint hvitt skum som varer. Mild citrusaroma med touch av honning. Smaken likeledes. OK lettøl om sommeren, men noteres i glemmeboken.

Flaske fra Det gode brygg, Sandnes: gylden med tett skum som varer. Lett floral humlearoma med litt citrus og maltsødme. Behagelig karbonert. Snev av kokt broccoli/blomkål i ettersmaken. Lettdrikkelig uten å være minneverdig.

500ml bottle. Pours clear gold with moderate white head. Extremely mild honey aroma. Taste is a touch homebrewy with a boring 3.6% blonde character and barely noticeable honey. Pointless.

500ml bottle from Beer me up Scotty, Shrewsbury Market Hall. Pours gold with thin white head. Decent dry, bitter golden ale with a slight hint of Ribena. And once I picked it up that’s all I could taste. Not bad but slightly unremarkable.
