Product code: brainSA
Brains SA is a legendary Welsh ale that has been a favourite since it was first brewed in 1958. This premium bitter ale is copper in colour and boasts a nutty richness derived from Pale and Crystal malts. The beer is hopped with three varieties; Challenger, Goldings, and Fuggles, which contribute to its unique and robust flavour profile.
There has been much confusion around the name of Brains SA. Some believe it stands for Special Ale, while others think it refers to Samuel Arthur. There are even those who suggest it could mean Skull Attack. Regardless of its origin, the name Brains SA has become synonymous with quality Welsh brewing.
Brains SA comes in cases of 12 x 500ml bottles, making it perfect for parties, gatherings, or simply stocking up your home bar. The beer is shipped in a sturdy Best of British Beer box, ensuring it arrives at your doorstep in perfect condition. Plus, if you order 2 or more cases, delivery is absolutely free.
