Description
Mantle Brewery started brewing on its 10 Barrel brew plant in August 2013. The first ever cask out of the cold room, a cask of Cwrw Teifi went straight to the Eagle Inn in Cardigan on September 1st 2013, our nearest pub. T’was a day to remember.

The brewery was founded by Ian & Domi Kimber, and together with Owen, Adam, Aled & Ian B, we brew great beer. The same care and attention goes into each and every brew, each and every step in the process, each and every cask, keg and bottle.

Cask-conditioned, on gravity, at Swansea Beer Festival 25/8/2018. Golden in colour, with a slight, white, head. An easy drinking lager, with some a hint of lemon, crisp malts and a pleasantly bitter finish. Good.

Cask, gravity at Fire in the Mountain Festival, nr Aberystwyth, Wales, Friday 1st June 2018 Difficult to be exacting on colour owing to green plastic glass that is festooned with a Northern Rock Patrons Project label. Ok and a little hoppier than the beer that we're trying it alongside, light fruity, it's ok. A6 A4 T7 P3 Ov12 3.2

Cask half-pint in The Druid Inn, Goginan, Wales on 17th Nov 2017. Clear golden amber body, white crown. Nice blend with a slight citrusy nose alongside a decent malty base. Taste leaning away from those citrusy esters and a resin/piney hop flavour kicks in with that malty base. Liked it.
