Throughout this year’s 6 Nations I’ll be highlighting beers to enjoy the Rugby with, it’s that time of year where I tend to spend a lot of time laying down in fields with beer, taking photos of course!
Next up is FELINFOEL – DOUBLE DRAGON
I remember drinking this in my youth in the not so mean streets of Milford Haven. A beer forever in my beer drinking memories, and nice to come back to. Double Dragon – Brewed using 5 generations of Brewing expertise, this is now widely known as The National Ale of Wales. Brewed using the choicest of hops, it gives an easy drinking style with a nice copper red colour and caramel flavour with toffee and butter overtones. Coming in at a modest 4.2% whilst traditional, Felinfoel actually has 90 Years of Canning History!
In 1935, Felinfoel Brewery made history as the first brewery in Europe to can beer. A true pioneer of canned beer. From the very first can rolling off the line to today’s iconic Double Dragon, it’s been an incredible journey of Welsh brewing innovation

Felinfoel Brewery
Class beer
Still have a soft spot for Dragon, even if it’s not as good as it was, since they changed the recipe after Fred Cheesewright retired and lowered the ABV.
