Tomos Watkin Cwrw Braf (Bottle)

Brewed by Tomos Watkin
Style: Bitter
Swansea, Wales

16.9oz bottle. Pours a slightly hazy dark amber color with a one finger white head and light lacing. Smell is really earthy and malty, with caramel, toffee and biscuit. The taste follows the smell with only a slight hop bittering. A nice session ale.

Bottle. Aroma and flavor was more malty then I expected. Amber colored apperance. This was a good beer. With a lower abv I believe I could really enjoy several of these.

Nice hazy golden amber coloured body with a copper glow and a very nice one centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of caramel, apricots, cereal, metal, pears and a touch of spice. Medium-bodied; Sharp malty flavour at first fading to some metallic and bloody tastes with a touch of nuts and caramel, but mostly watery. Aftertaste shows a lot of caramel and malt, but almost nothing else. Overall, a pretty bland and watery beer after the initial tastes. Definitely good to try a welsh beer, after the folk life festival (in Washington) that I couldn’t get one at the festival, but found a few bottles at Chevy Chase. I sampled this 50 cL bottle purchased from Chevy Chase Wine & Spirits in Washington, DC on 25-July-2009, sampled at home in Washington on 22-November-2009.

Cloudy amber color. Aroma is bitter, apples, and spices. Taste is of fruits and spices. Has a slightly fruity aftertaste.
