Breconshire Brewery (Brecon, Powys, Wales) - Cribyn

Beer of the Festival, 2007 Carmarthen Beer Festival. A very pale, straw-coloured aromatic Best Bitter, brewed with Northdown, Challenger and Bramling Cross hops. The spicy and aromatic nose give due notice that this is a well hopped beer, and the initial flavours on the tongue don't disappoint - the intense hop flavours combine beautifully on the background of the sweet malt, and create a splendidly refreshing beer, which just has to be tried again - just to make sure!

ABV: 4.5     OG: 1.045
