Little Pleasures 3.2% Pale Ale A light, juicy Pale Ale that’s small on strength but packs a big punch of flavour. A delicate blend of Amarillo, Citra and Simcoe come together for a bright citrus aroma full of juicy fruits and a super soft drinkable body. Unity Brewing Co. May Provisions: EIPA 6% IPA A homage to the traditional English India Pale Ale using heritage Chevalier barley from Crisp Malt for a rich malty flavour with a hint of marmalade, and UK Challenger hops from Brook House Hops for spice and bitterness. Whiplash Beer Hot Pursuit 5% Pale Ale An initial aroma of bright tangerine and mandarin, pineapple, apricot and lemon. A honey malt base gives way to fruits - again mandarin, tangerine, white grape, apricots and lemons. Soft low bitterness, slightly sweet finish with a slight lingering of pleasant hop oil and tingling resin. Left Handed Giant Brewing Co. Breathing : Conversations 8% DIPA Collab with Finback. This easy drinking, juicy DIPA with a hefty dry hop of Citra and Mosaic, was brewed to a recipe by Finback and Soul by You, a recipe which has now been brewed by many, all with an individual take on it yet all dedicated to being a base for conversation. Boxcar Brewery Singularity Drive 8% DIPA Dank mangos and powdered papaya sherbet. Vanilla chews, thick and warming for the winter months. Comet in the whirlpool; Citra, Mosaic, Azacca and Ekuanot.

Electric Bear Brewing Co. 5 Steps Forward, 6 Steps Back 6.5% Belgian IPA A typical Belgian malty backbone is fermented using a Belgian Yeast strain to produce fruity banana flavours.

Overdub 7.2% Black Rye IPA Overdub has all the citrus and tropical fruit elements of a big hoppy IPA, with some amount of spice from the rye and a subtle roastiness. This beer is black to look at but with the unexpected fruity flavours of an IPA. Electric Bear Brewing Co. A Pale Of Two Cities <0.5% Alcohol Free Pale Ale Collab with Low Tide Brewing. A hazy pale ale with aromas of peach and a great hoppy flavour without the booze. Unfined, unfiltered, unpasteurised natural beer. Overtone Brewing Co. Can Ye West 8% West Coast DIPA A big citrus forward hop bomb with a solid malt base, this double west coast IPA combines bitterness and sweetness in an enticing way making this beer hard to put down. Made with Citra, Simcoe, Rakau and Columbus. The Wild Beer Co. Zobo 5% Gose Inspired by a traditional Nigerian drink, this is a mixed fermentation fruity, floral, spicy, sour beer. Pineapples, ginger and hibiscus flowers, balanced with salt and acidity; resulting in a 3-dimensional flavour experience. The Wild Beer Co. Madness IPA 2021 6.5% West Coast IPA Wild Beer’s original West Coast IPA, brewed from 2012-18, has been revisited and reimagined with hops from 2020. Madness is bursting with mouth-watering tropical flavours and aromas and has an unapologetic West Coast bitterness. North Brewing Co. North X Track 6.8% IPA Collab with Track Brewing Co. Brewed using Talus for its bright lime, juicy orange and creamy coconut profile. For good measure, sprinkled with some El Dorado, Citra and orange zest to polish up that citrus sunshine. Vocation Brewery No.666 10.9% Russian Imperial Stout Collab with Kirkstall Brewery. Crafted with Colliano blend No.666 Coffee from Antonia & Panesar. The coffee enhances the chocolate flavours of the dark malt and provides a smooth, sweet finish. Vocation Brewery Mesmerism 10% TIPA A punchy 10% TIPA. Expect a juicy explosion of flavour from a mighty combination of Galaxy, Simcoe, Mosaic and Enigma. 4 Brew By Numbers 55|Double IPA – Mosaic & Nelson 8.2% DIPA Mosaic lays the foundation with waves of ripe tropical fruit alongside a fresh berry aroma. Nelson Sauvin adds depth, with flavours of white grape, subtle grassy notes and a refined fruity edge. A generous oat addition softens the profile, resulting in a beer that is juicy, full-bodied and smooth. Mondo Brewing Co. Technological Adolescence 5.1% Pale Ale Extra Pale Ale malt provides the base. Wheat, Oats and Cara Clair added for body. Amarillo and Azacca in the cool pool.

  • Brief Histories of Churches Cardiff
    Brief Histories of Churches in the Roath, Splott, Adamsdown, Cathays, Tremorfa, Tredegarville & Penylan areas of Cardiff Roath Local History Society in Cardiff has as its area of interest the old Parish of Roath in the 1880s. This covered not just the area we know as Roath today but also Splott, Adamsdown, Pengam, Pen-y-lan, and part of Cathays. This brief histories of churches looks at the churches that would have been in the area of old parish of Roath but also strays into neighbouring area such as Tredegarville and Cathays as a whole. There may be more churches to be included such as some mission halls that doubled up both as Sunday Schools as well as a church. A couple of synagogues are also included. Building of other faiths will be added over time, though some are already listed as former church buildings now house other faiths. Some errors and omissions in the details are likely. When the author is made aware of any errors, or additional information comes to light, the details on the website version will be updated where possible. The website also contains an interactive map that pinpoints the individual churches. Research for this compilation has relied heavily on a number of publications by members of Roath Local History Society in particular: ‘Cardiff Churches Through Time’ by Jean Rose. ‘Roath, Splott and Adamsdown, One Thousand Years of History’ by Jeff Childs. ‘Roath, Splott and Adamsdown – the Archive Photographs Series’ by Jeff Childs The author would also like to thank members of the various churches listed for their assistance and individuals of other organisations.

  • City and County of Cardiff Dinas a Sir Caerdydd
    CITY AND COUNTY OF CARDIFF DINAS A SIR CAERDYDD COMMITTEE OF THE COUNCIL 25 April 2002 CABINET PROPOSAL AGENDA ITEM: Community Planning Background 1. On 21 September 2000 the Council approved the development of a partnership- based community strategy. This reflects the fact that community planning is a key component of the Government’s modernisation agenda and the Council continues to be at the vanguard of the development of community planning in Wales. The Council has taken into account the advice of the National Assembly and is continuing to learn from and help shape best practice by its participation in the Audit Commissions Quality of Life pilot project and the Local Government Information Unit’s Community Planning network. 2. In the last year the Council has continued to work with partners to develop indicators for the Community Strategy, launched Action Forums on Race Equality and the Anti Litter Strategy, undertaken a partnership audit, and tied the Community Strategy into the budgetary and policy development cycles of the Council. This report provides an update on progress in delivering community planning in Cardiff and outlines a work programme for 2002-2003. Issues Emerging from the Congress 3. At the second Capital Congress, which was entitled ‘Time for Delivery’, 100 community planning partners agreed changes to the draft strategy, which is attached to this report as Appendix A. In part, this reflected the results of an extensive survey undertaken in Capital Times that received 2,474 responses. A summary of the results is attached as Appendix B. Capital Congress also agreed the Performance Indicator framework and, at a series of workshops, began evaluating the potential for the delivery of objectives through partnership working.

  • Case Study 1
    Case study 1 Save the Vulcan – how to save pubs and influence people The first group to be case studied in this book is the ‘Save the Vulcan’ campaign. The Vulcan Hotel was built in 1853 and was located in the centre of Cardiff, United Kingdom, but was under threat from demolition. This chapter will address the Save the Vulcan campaign to illustrate that substantial mediain the first and political opportunities were open for the group, and how they managed to exploit these opportunities. However, the media and protest tactics of the group were non-confrontational, and the decisions behind the tactics were influenced by the group’s political insider status and the demographics of their supporters. The non- confrontational tactics and political opportunities led to a very sympathetic local newspaper, and this fed back into the media and protest tactics and kept them relatively non-confrontational. The Save the Vulcan campaign 1 was created following an interview on BBC Radio Wales with the future chairperson, and the subsequent involvement of another activist who joined the group upon hearing this interview. The committee that formed had a consistent core of five members. It was a Cardiff-based campaign that centred its political pressure on local politicians and publicising the campaign in the South Wales regional press, the South Wales Echo in particular. The political and media backdrop This section will detail the protest targets of the group, and the media and political backdrop to the Vulcan campaign before it began. First, the nature of the external threat to the Vulcan pub meant that the protest targets for the campaign were clear.
