Philip Pirrip | Not Tried | 05 Dec 2014 | Usual 'Spoon's trick. Clip showing but not available. Barman said line being cleaned and would be on tomorrow. When asked by clip not turned round he said he did not know and did not turn it round. So as I left I turned it round to put JDW the right side of the law and customer focus! |

Bear & Ragged Staff | | 25 Mar 2013 | Complex malty, nutty and fruity bitter |
Bear & Ragged Staff | | 05 Mar 2013 | Very good all round bitter / pale ale. Lots going on in the glass, would happily spend an evening drinking this beer. |
Bear & Ragged Staff | | 18 Feb 2012 | Not quite as complex as I remember, nevertheless a good bitter. Lovely malt, a little fruit and a nice hoppy, medium bitter finish, also quite crisp and clean. All in good balance and with a good body. |

Bear & Ragged Staff | | 29 Aug 2011 | I had looked forward to a pint from this brewery for some time and I wasn't disappointed. There was an awful lot going on in the glass at various stages - fruity, malty, nutty and hoppy - and they seemed to be in good balance. Hopefully we will get the chance to taste other ales from this brewery. |

Ian | | 07 Jun 2008 | I admit that sometimes I take againse Welsh breweries for no good reason (except Otley and Evan Evans), but this has changed my perception. Gold with lasting beige head. Looks in good nick. Decent malt hop yeast balanced aroma. Hop and toffee in mouth. Very good nick. Surprisngly good flavours. Finish has some refreshing acidity. A very pleasant bitter. |
Blair | | 07 Jun 2008 | Golden in colour with a light citrus and hop flavour. |
