Felinfoel, Double Dragon (Wales)  This family-owned brewery in Llanelli was established in 1878, and remains independent. Double Dragon pours a deep coppery red colour, with a good, creamy off-white head. On the nose there is a distinctive note of brusied apple and pear skins, with an undertone of caramel and a touch of gunflint. On the palate it is quite full-bodied and creamy-textured, with plenty of nutty, lightly toffeed notes and a big core of tangy red fruit flavour. There is a touch of that flinty character in the finish, and a fresh, hoppy bite, in a very nice and quite distinctive beer. 4.2% ABV, 50cl, �2.49, brewery website, Beersofeurope.  |  |
