History
Evan Evans describes a 250-year history of family brewing at its core. Its brewing craft is traced back to 1767, described as seven generations of brewing passion and expertise passed down through the Buckley family. This history began when the Reverend James Buckley married the daughter of Henry Child, founder of Child's Brewery in Llanelli. As a Methodist minister, Rev Buckley ran two concerns: saving souls and satisfying thirst, and his sons grew the business into a substantial malting, brewing and public house venture on the banks of the River Lliedi. Over the years it grew to become the leading brewery in South Wales and gave rise to the name 'Buckley's Country'. In 1903 the company was granted a Royal Warrant, and a year later the brewery won the gold medal at the brewers' exhibition in London. In 1910 it became brewers by appointment to King George V, described as the only Welsh brewer to earn this distinction. Today Evan Evans is based in Llandeilo, West Wales, where its modern brewing plant produces around 3 million pints every year.
