Description
Opened December 2005 based on Kinsons Farm, Whitebrook, Monmouth. Moved towards the end of 2007 to their current address.

Kingstone Brewery is a four barrel micro brewery located in Tintern, in the heart of the Wye Valley. Our real ales are adapted from traditional recipes to suit modern pallets. From hearty IPA’s to quaffable bitters and golden hoppy ales. We offer a beer for every occasion.

We here at Kingstone are unwilling to compromise on the traditional brewing process, therefore we choose to hand brew, and hand bottle our ales using traditional ingredients. Our beers are unfiltered, unpasteurised and bottle conditioned to develop a fuller flavour, finer bubble and more subtle texture!

bottle. Slightly hazy amber-golden colour, tiny head. Fruity-hoppy nose. Light malty base with lots of hops, some of it rather medicinal. The malty base does not really balance the hops, it’s bitter-sweet, but I don’t really like the medicinal bitterness of the hops.

50cl bottle of Kingstone Gold from Real Ale Ltd, Twickenham. Poured a brilliantly clear amber gold leaving lots of sediment in the bottle, even adding this left a decent looking pint. THe billowing white head soon faded. Aroma of lemon and grain; sweet honey taste with some citrus. Clean and refreshing.

Bottle, Waitrose. Muddy ugly brown. The aroma hints at an oaty, chocolatey, slightly nutty and bready character. A different brew.
