Description
Bluestone Brewing is an exciting, eco-friendly family run brewery situated in the foothills of the Preseli Hills in North Pembrokeshire. We produce hand crafted real ales, using local water filtered down through the Bluestone Hills to produce a range of flavoursome Rock Solid Ales. Our ten barrel brewery lives in the front yard of Tyriet Farm, which is still a working farm to this day.

The name Bluestone Brewing Company comes from the local stone that the buildings were built from many years ago. Bluestone is also pretty famous for being mysteriously transported over 250 miles to become Stonehenge over 5000 years ago!

Bottle. An unclear dark golden colored beer with a small, dense off-white head. Fruity aroma with some sourish, tart notes. Pale malts and some caramel. Dried fruits too. It’s medium bodied, semi-sweet and nicely carbonated, with a light sourness touch. Dried fruits, some pale malts, caramel and a touch of yeast. Sure drinkable, but rather uninteresting. 170617

Pours a slightly hazy amber colour with a small off white head. A caramel and malt aroma. A similar malty caramel taste, some straw notes and an astringent bitterness in the finish.
