Description
We are Grey Trees, we are an independent brewery based in South Wales, UK. We produce a range of award winning beers and offer both a retail and wholesale trade service. We supply directly to our customers as well as to pubs, bars, and restaurants across the UK.

The name, Grey Trees, comes from the English translation of the village where the brewery was born, Llwydcoed. After a successful first few years, we moved the brewery to a larger premises, breathing new life into an old industrial unit in Aberaman, Aberdare. Although our location changed, everything involved in making the very best crafted ales stayed the same, even the local fresh Welsh water source.

500ml bottle from Purple Moose Brewery shop, Porthmadog. Pours an encouraging hazy gold with medium white head. Aroma is nicely sweet weiss esters. Taste is bright with moderate weiss flavours, not as smooth and prominent as some weisbiers but still rather pleasant and summery.

Cask @ The Salopian Bar, Shrewsbury. Pours gold with a slight haze, white head. Aroma is biscuity malt. Taste seems slightly subdued with mild citrus leanings but veering more towards a malt character. Fine.
