Real Ale in Tintern
Kingstone - 1503 Tudor Ale
Ruby - 4.8%
Markedly different from modern beers, 1503 is deep chestnut red, lightly hopped, yet full of chocolate, coffee and malt complexities. Whilst it is thoroughly enjoyable drunk unaccompanied, keen cooks will appreciate its dark and treacly richness in a hearty beef stew, or celebratory fruit cake.

Amber - 5.1%
Abbey is an amber-coloured, full-flavoured ale. The edges of the Challenger and Northern Brewer hops are balanced by the smooth malty richness of the barley.

Kingstone - Challenger
Pale - 4%
To create this quenching brew we mix barley and wheat malts and add generous amounts of Wye Challenger hops for both the bittering and flavouring. Challenger is a smooth and richly hoppy well-balanced ale with a malted nose and toffee undertones.

Kingstone - Tewdric's Tipple
Golden - 3.8%
This smooth, honey-coloured ale celebrates the audacity of Tewdric (also known asTewdrig), a onetime King of Gwent and self-imposed hermit.
The combination of Fuggles and Northern Brewer Hops with blended pale and crystal malted barley produces an ale with a dry bitter character and tangy core. A firm kegged favourite in our local hostelries.
