Evan-Evans Brewery kicks off Jubilee celebrations with new heritage brands






The award-winning Llandeilo Brewery of Evan-Evans has kicked off the Jubilee celebrations with the launch of new beers.
The new WH Buckley heritage brand celebrates 245 years of family brewing and the Queen’s Royal Diamond Jubilee.
 Evan-Evans Chief Executive Simon Buckley said: “We have launched five exciting new beer brands to challenge the taste buds of real ale enthusiasts from all over the Principality. 
“This year, we will not be at the Great Welsh Beer and Cider Festival in Cardiff, but we will be running a tasting of our new beers across our pub estate.
“We have launched the Prince of Wales Royal Ale 1910 Heritage beer.
“It’s a rich malty beer with a plummy finish. This was first brewed for the Prince of Wales in 1910. This beer won the Buckley family its Royal Warrant and we remain the only Welsh Brewing family to have ever had one.
“This beer celebrates all the great things that the Jubilee represents.
“We also bring back Cwrw Cayo for those that do not want to celebrate the Royal connection.
“Cwrw Cayo is a great ale that first received rave reviews in 1996. It celebrates the life of the late Julian Cayo Evans, self-styled commandant of the Free Wales Army.
“We have brewed some great beers and the new summer stout, which should be drunk cool, is a wonderful new style of beer.
“These beers will be available in pubs throughout Wales and in our managed estate as a special Jubilee Beer Festival.
“We look forward to welcoming the many real ale drinkers from around the UK and further afield to our pubs to try this exciting new range of beers. Great beers, great occasion . . . everything looks set for a great party!”

Evan-Evans has a reputation for brewing the highest quality cask-conditioned beers. Evan-Evans is Wales’s largest specialist brewer of cask ale. The company started brewing in 2004 to produce specialist cask ales for the Welsh and national guest ale market.
The brewing heritage of the Buckley family stretches back to the early 19th century after the Rev James Buckley married the eldest daughter of Henry Child who had founded Childs Brewery in Llanelli. It was set up to slake the thirst of the town’s tinworkers, who were rapidly increasing in numbers.
Evan-Evans was founded in Llandeilo in 2003 and began brewing in 2004. It is named after William Evan-Evans who married into the family four generations ago

Former Gower MP Gareth Wardell the guest speaker at Llanelli Rotary Club

Former Gower MP Gareth Wardell was the guest speaker at the weekly meeting of Llanelli Rotary Club held at the Stradey Park Hotel. Mr Wardell gave an illuminating address, weaving comparisons between his job as a politician and his late father's job as a Tumble barber. It was an amusing, highly-entertaining and thought-provoking address. Mr Wardell, now 69, won the Gower constituency seat in a Parliamentary by-election in 1982. The Labour MP held the seat until his retirement in 1997. He now works as a public affairs consultant in Wales. Mr Wardell's Parliamentary term was largely in opposition to Margaret Thatcher's Conservative Government. But his did make a significant contribution by being the youngest MP to chair the Welsh Affairs Select Committee. Mr Wardell recognised that in the 'fame stakes' he may have played second fiddle to his father, Jack, who was one of the UK's oldest barbers and who cut and styled hair for almost 80 years. Jac

Ammanford-based Lauryn Davey is making a major mark in the world of Welsh athletics. At just 16, she is the best all-round athlete of her age in Wales. She's chalking up Welsh championship victories and has been honoured by her club, the Carmarthen Harriers. Lauryn's been earmarked as a future international star, but knows the road to the big championships is difficult, demanding and expensive.
