About

MONTY’S BREWERY WAS FOUNDED IN 2009 BY HUSBAND-AND-WIFE TEAM RUSS AND PAM HONEYMAN. BOTH WERE LOOKING FOR A CAREER CHANGE, HAVING MOVED BACK FROM AMERICA AFTER WORKING THERE FOR FOUR AND A HALF YEARS. RUSS HAD BEEN WORKING AS A DESIGN CONSULTANT IN AUSTIN, TEXAS, AND PAM, ORIGINALLY A PRIMARY SCHOOL TEACHER, WAS WORKING IN THE CHARITY SECTOR. RUSS STARTED A BEER, WINE, AND SPIRITS WHOLESALE COMPANY. AT THE TIME, THERE WERE ONLY A HANDFUL OF BREWERIES IN WALES. RUSS WAS CONSTANTLY BEING ASKED, “WHAT REAL ALES CAN YOU GET ME?” EVENTUALLY, HE TURNED TO PAM AND ASKED, “THIS REAL ALE MALARKEY IS REALLY TAKING OFF—DO YOU FANCY LEARNING HOW TO BREW?” PAM SAID YES, ENROLLED IN A COURSE AT BREWLAB, AND IMMEDIATELY FELL IN LOVE WITH BREWING. THE REST, AS THEY SAY, IS HISTORY! SINCE THEN, THEY HAVE ESTABLISHED MONTY'S AS ONE OF THE LEADING BREWERIES IN WALES. IN 2024, THE BREWERY RECEIVED A MAJOR INVESTMENT FROM UBUNTO BUSINESS HOLDINGS, WITH PLANS TO EXPAND THE FACILITY. PRODUCING REAL ALES OF MANY STYLES, WITH A FOCUS ON GLUTEN-FREE BEERS, THE BREWERY PRIDES ITSELF ON ITS AWARD-WINNING RANGE. BREWING A BEER EVERYONE CAN ENJOY.
