Monty’s Brewery are excited to announce that their Gluten Free stout ‘Dark Secret’ has been awarded ‘Highly Commended’ at this year’s prestigious Great British Food Awards 2020.
Head Judge Natalia Ribbe said of the beer:
“Beautiful flavour profile, something I could enjoy with a bowl of roast peanuts in front of a roaring fire on an autumnal day. I also think this would be an excellent beer to pair with the dessert on a tasting.”
Magnitude, their 8% barley wine was also a finalist in the competition. This indulgent beer is full of sweet, malty characteristics and warming alcohol, perfect for sipping in front of the fire on a cold evening.
Russ Honeyman Commercial Director said:
“To have two beers as finalists and one of them to receive ‘Highly Commended’ is a testament to the skill and hard work of our staff and brewers at the Brewery. Dark Secret has been winning prizes consistently since we began brewing it in 2016. Awards like the Great British Food Awards enable us to secure sales not only in the UK but abroad too”.
Dark Secret and all of Monty’s range can be purchased from their Website www.montysbrewery.co.uk/products-page or you can telephone 01686 668933 to discuss with one of the team if you are interested in stocking it or any of the range.
It’s no Dark Secret that Monty’s Brewery is one of over 100 drinks producers in Wales are coming together to create the first ever ‘Make It A Welsh Drinks Christmas’ event to showcase the quality and diversity of Welsh drinks produced across the country ahead of the festive season.
Make It A Welsh Drinks Christmas is being co-ordinated by the Welsh Drinks Cluster and consumers will see an abundance of activity across the campaign – from events to competitions – all hosted by Welsh drinks producers from every sector, including wine, beer, cider, spirits, water, soft drinks, health drinks, tea and coffee.
The campaign’s website is up and running with festivities beginning from 23rd November, with a range of online events hosted by drinks producers from across Wales. Through virtual tastings, online tours and meet the expert sessions, each event will give consumers insights into the industry and specific businesses, including the chance to discover more about the best Welsh drinks products available to buy ahead of Christmas and the New Year period. Monty’s is biased but giving a Dark Secret at Christmas makes the ideal gift.
