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!

Can from Bluestone Brewery, Gwaun Valley. Blonde with a head. Pretty much as described with its hemp providing a lightish aroma and flavour to what is a lager in style rather than taste. Hints of citrus and good soft water too

Cask at Smithfield, Derby. Pours golden yellow with minimal almost white head and good lacing. Hops are to the fore in the aroma, plus some hints of citrus. In the mouth it is zesty and quite sweet with flavour of barley sugar and floral hops. Later on comes tangerine and hints of marmalade and sultanas, leading to a quite fruity finish. It’s reasonable, but nothing spectacular.
