My, this place is impressive. A big, open plan modern venue, clean and friendly. It was quiet when I came in at 2 on a Friday. There are 18 taps, 16 Polly's beers and 2 ciders. The beer ranges from low alcohol to sessionable pales to a Baltic porter and a DIPA. Polly's, of course, put out an insane amount of beers, and a lot of them swrves here will be the newest stuff so you'll get ticks. A few cans as well. Prices are reasonable, the cost for my sessionable pale was in line with basic cask in town. Amazing!

Draught keg at Polly's Social, Mold. Light yellow/gold, hazy with a large pillow white head. Big apricot aroma, a little pineapple, with a lovely malt note. Tastes wonderful, sweet at first with stone fruit almost being edged out but the biscuity malt. Bitterness later on, more citrus hop character, leading to a balanced finish. Creamy body with carbonation impressively dialled back.

Handpull cask at the Fat Boar, Mold. Slightly orangeish gold, clear, eith a small uneven film of white head. Light aroma of pink grapefruit, slightly soapy. Struggling a little with the taste, it's got the nice hoppy Citra character but the soapiness has increased here. Bitter finish. Medium body, soft carbonation. Balance issues obscure the more positive elements of this beer.

Handpull cask at Glasfryn, Mold. Light gold (but not too light, mind), hazy with a small uneven swirl of white head. Heavy vanilla wafer malt notes, some lemon and tangerine, fresh pineapple, a little gooseberry. Bittersweet taste, nicely sharp with the citrus hop notes, settling to a back-of-the-tongue bitter finish. Medium body with very soft carbonation. Very reasonable but I want a little bit more here.
