About
Established in 2011, Mumbles Brewery has dedicated itself to producing quality real ales with a local flavour. That ‘local flavour’ comes from the beautiful Swansea in Wales. Their beers are only available in pubs throughout South Wales and Bristol, that is one of many reasons we chose them to be included in our boxes. We wanted you to be able to enjoy these excellent beers no matter where you are in the country. The Brewery started making real ale in 2013 in the Pilot Inn, Mumbles. A range of unique ales are brewed with local flavour.

500ml bottle from Baileys Fine Foods, Llangollen. Pours black with a healthy tan head. Aroma has salty roast, cola, dark malts. Taste has soft dry roast, umami, smooth textured malts, drying close. Not a hugely prominent oyster presence though i imagine it would be brought out more alongside a few oysters. Serviceable oyster stout.

Cask at Cornubia - Bristol. Pours clear orange-gold with a small, foamy white head. Bready malt nose, a touch buttery, some English yeast. Light sweet flavour with doughy, lightly toasted malts, subtle leafy bitterness. Light bodied with fine carbonation; so so carbonation. Sweet finish, more doughy and lightly butter bread. Eh, fairly mediocre.

Cask at Cornubia. It pours clear brown with a small white head. The aroma is earthy, bready, caramel, toasty grain and leather. The taste is drying, chewy, old leather sofa, tannin, stewed black tea and some peppery spice with a drying finish. Light body and soft carbonation. A pretty standard twiggy cask thing, but not bad.
