Dare go to Newport Farmers Market

Newport Farmers Market

It is a welcome return to see a Farmers Market return to John Frost Square in Newport. Although it does mean that the redevelopment of the City Centre Square has been cancelled along with the redevelopment of the bus station. In fact the bus station has just been given a new coat of paint! Does not seem we have demolition anytime soon. Anyway back to the farmers market, held on the 2nd and 4^th Friday of every month, it was a nice surprise to see Richard Hall from Dare Brewery set up his stall there. Dare Brewery is based at the CAMRA Good Beer Guide pub, the Falcon at Cwmaman, near Aberdare and brews a range of cask and bottle-conditioned beers. Prices are good as well, with bottles at £2.20 each or £20 for a case of 12. Presentation packs are also available.

The beer range:

Spring Ahead 4%

Dat Dare 4.1%

ESB 4.8%

Falcon Flyer 5.2%

Old Daredevil 7.9%

Seasonal specialities will complement the range throughout the year

If you cannot make it to Newport Farmers Market on the 2^nd and 4^th Fridays of the month then Dare Brewery are also at Riverside (Sunday) and Roath Farmers Markets (1st & 3rd Saturday each month) in Cardiff.
