Grey Trees Brewery
Microbrewery
in Aberdare,
Rhondda Cynon Taff,
Wales 🏴
Associated Venue: National Tap
Established in 2011
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.

A 500ml bottle brought from Cheers Wine Store in Mumbles & on my recent trip to South Wales. Poured at home. A very good APA, hoppy & dry.

Delt med Rune på Craft Beer Co. Clerkenwell. Mørk stråfarget. Luftig filmskum. Aroma av kjeks & litt malt. Smaken svisker. Tørr, lett bitter avslutning.

One-third pint, shared with Finn. Spotty lacing from a filmy layer, deep amber body. Inviting on the nose, caramel-fruity scents. Fine balanced flavours of leafy hops, earth, and semi sweet brown malts. Rounded malt-fruity finish, bittersweet. Medium bodied. Pleasing. (London, 10.02.2025)

Bottle from Wales Ales. Pours a clear amber with nice consistent off-white head with lacing. Aroma and taste of apricot, biscuit like malt, straw, something between floral and grassy; nice freshness. Its got a very good bittersweet balance, fruity with a medium body, reasonably smooth and fine carbonation. Great bitter.

Bottle from Wales Ales. Pours amber with nice off white top. Aroma of earthy malt, caramel biscuit, dried fruits, wood. Taste follows aroma; earthy and leafy but with some dried fruity esters, some nuts and caramel. Nice prickly bitterness. Reasonable crispness helped by a high fine carbonation. Good bitter.
