Gower Brewery was formed in September 2011 by a team that was running two pubs on the Gower Peninsula in south Wales, and mashed in for the first time that November on a five-barrel plant. It has since moved to a twenty-barrel brewhouse on the Crofty Industrial Estate at Penclawdd, on the north coast of the peninsula, with a shop and a tap on site. The range centres on golden and amber ales, joined by two lagers, a porter and a low-alcohol IPA; the company also runs a taproom in Mumbles and a bar in Swansea.

How we measure this

Two thresholds are at work here:

  • The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
  • The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.

A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
