A Pint with… Andy N., Homebrewer

I live in Cardiff but I’m originally from Lancashire. I am retired and started brewing when my children bought me a BrewDog 1 gallon brew-in-a-bag kit just after lockdown in 2020. The results were successful so I started looking at other kits and equipment, and came across the Dark Farm (MASHED) kits and eventually tried them all.

Brewing Notes

This issue has become something of a shrine to IPAs and Aberystwyth - and rightly so! What a truly amazing town and community we’ve found ourselves in: a thriving, bubbling scene that extends far beyond beer. There’s the sea, the mountains, and a bold, colourful mix of people who give this place its heartbeat. If you haven’t yet been, let this serve as your invitation - there’s never been a better time to visit.
