Helo a chroeso i'r Blog Cwrw  

Penderfynais ddechrau’r blog hwn pan sylweddolais does dim un blog iaith Gymraeg sy’n drafod cwrw crefft (hyd yr wn i). Mae cwrw crefft yn phenomenon byd-eang, a mae’n bosib eiflasu mewn bron pob wlad, a mae’n bosib darllen blogs am gwrw crefft yn nwsinau o ieithoedd. Felly pam na’r Gymraeg?

Mae’n bwysig nodi bod enw’r blog yn cynnwys “Cymreig” yn hytrach na “Chymraeg”. Er bod yr elfen ieithyddol ynbwysig, mae’r ochr diwylliannol, cymdeithasol ac hanesyddol o’r persbectif Cymreig hefyd yn bwysig, oherwydd mae gan Gymru sector Cwrw Crefft sydd wedi ffrwydo a ffynnu dros y flynyddoedd diwethaf. 

Dyma ni felly. Beth fydd cynnwys a ffocws y blog? Wel, byddai’n croesawu syniadau, ond dyma rhai pethau byddai’n ceisio cynnwys:
• Bars a thafarndai cwrw crefft yn Nghymru. (Dwi’n bywyn Nghaerdydd, felly mi fydd, wrth gwrs tuedd at sefydliadau yfed yn y ddinas honno, mae’n flin gen i).
• Bragdai cwrw crefft Cymreig – gan gynnwys adolygiadau o gwrw.
• Trafodaeth ynglyn a chwrw crefft diddorol o du hwnt i Gymru… Os dof i ar draws cwrw da ar wyliau, byddai’n ceisio’i drafod yma.
• Trafodaeth ynglyn a steils gwahanol o gwrw.
• Unrhywbeth arall diddorol ynglyn a chwrw crefft.

Mae rhaid imi nodi cwpl o bwyntiau eraill:
• Ni fydd yr iaith wastad yn bur neu yn berffaith
• Byddai’n ceisio cadw’r mwyafrif o’r blogs yn gymharol byr (haws i’w hysgrifennu a haws i’w ddarllen!)
• Wrth gwrs, mae’r blog hwn yn annog defnydd alcohol synhwyrol, gan ddilyn argymhellion y GIG ynglyn a chyfaint dyddiol dyle pobl yfed.

Gobeithiaf fyddech chi’n mwynhau’r blog!

Wales reaches 100 Breweries - the full list

For the first time since probably the 1930s, Wales now has over 100 active breweries. The last decade has seen a dramatic increase in the number of Welsh micro-breweries, with growth outstripping all other parts of the UK apart from London . Over the past couple of years, it has regularly been predicted that Wales would soon break the 100 brewery barrier, with 88 independent breweries recorded in 2015 . It now appears that we have reached that landmark figure. Below, we have listed all the active breweries in Wales – giving a total of 115. Four of those breweries are not yet brewing commercially (denoted by *). However, even discounting those 4 companies still leaves a total of 111 breweries operating in Wales. The geographic footprint of the breweries is impressive, with every local authority area in Wales (yes, all 22) having at least one brewery! In terms of size and scale, the list is very diverse – including long-standing giant Brains alongside newly established micro...

Welsh Beer Review of 2017

As we approach the end of 2017 it seems like a good time to reflect upon the year. We've seen an exciting year of change on the Welsh beer scene and it would be impossible to capture every single development here. With that in mind, I've decided to list a few of the highlights below: Tiny Rebel First of all we start with arguably Wales’s biggest craft brewery, Tiny Rebel.  It’s been a big year for the Newport brewers, moving into a state of the art new premises in Rogerstone, enabling a significant expansion in production and the development of an onsite bar and brewery tours.  A slight down-note for Tiny Rebel has been the recent case involving the branding of their Cwtch beer. However, an optimist would note the significant publicity and exposure the brewery has received off the back of this episode… In spite of this recent blip, there’s no doubt that 2017 has been a great year for Tiny Rebel. Grey Trees The awards have been pouring in for the Aberdare b...

September Beer Events

Recently I noticed that there are several exciting craft beer rated events coming up in Cardiff/South East Wales during September. Of course, this is brilliant news. However, I then realised that in order to find the details of these events you have to trawl through various different social media accounts. There is no central list or calendar for these events- so I decided to start one.  The list below has an obvious Cardiff bias, but I'm keen for it to include events from across Wales, so if you spot something I should add, leave a comment or connect with me via Twitter and i’ll update the list Sept 1/2 -12 noon to 11pm - Tiny Rebel Brewfest Tiny Rebel beer festival held at The Depot on Dumballs Road, Cardiff. 25 breweries from Wales and beyond, with cider and spirits also available and various street food options. A huge event which will undoubtedly deliver bucket-loads of high quality beer.  Sept 2 - 12 noon to 10pm - PIPES Bar Open event Ever popular month...
