Bottle.Tried this for a second time and found it much more impressive than the first.They have obviously overcome their bottling problems as this lacked the vinegar loke taste the first time I tried it.
Now i could taste the fruit and herbs that i couldn’t before.Really unusual and lingering flavour. Probably the most improved beer I have tried for some years.

3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Half pint pulled at the Cwellyn Arms in Rhyd Ddu (Snowdonia NP, Wales), a clear light amber with a thin slightly off-white head. A good aroma of flowery malt with some berry notes. Very very smooth with just a touch of bitterness in the finish. Just a subtle juicy malt flavour with a touch of some fruits. An easy to drink session ale.
