Description
Cwrw Iâl Community Brewing Company is more than just a community project! Is has set out to e a force to be reckoned with. It does not produce run of the mill real ale, it produces the highest quality beer with tasty ingredients. It believes in delivering the whole package, going the extra mile, not to be a slave to the accountant and to work in collaboration with other local business, artists and social enterprises.

Well folks, it is the end of an era. With our lease due early next year and the rising cost of production we have been pondering our future. As luck would have it someone has come along and offered to buy us out. We have decided to take up their offer so over the next few weeks the brewery kit will be moving to West Wales.

Chelmsford Winter Beer Festival. KEGS. Cask. Bright clear amber beer, untidy bubbly pale cream colour head. Palate is light and semi dry. Modest fine carbonation. A bitterish dark toffee thing leads to dried fruits and floral bitterness. Light semi dry finish. A decent bitter, hangs together well.

Cask @ Fox & Goose, Hebden Bridge. Blonde with a small frothy head. Dry hopped with a very sessionable texture. There’s some fruit evident but it’s more crisp than anything else.
