Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Enjoyed sampling some Purple Moose beer and it was very good. This beer doesn’t need the quirky label, it’s good enough.
The brewery is next to the Australian Hotel In Porthmadog. Both add colour and funk to the harbour town.

For the avoidance of doubt, this review refers to the brewery shop on the High Street and not the brewery itself. The shop is beautifully laid out with (of course) a full range of delicious Purple Moose bottled and canned beers but also beers from other Welsh micro-breweries and Welsh gin and wine as well as Purple Moose branded clothing (tee-shirts, hoodies, etc.) and gifts. The perfect place to buy an eight-pack to take home as a souvenir...

Full-on purple, beer and moose in this unique, friendly little shop!
Huge range of Purple Moose beers, both regular lines and limited editions. We bought some, having enjoyed "Snowdonia" and "Dark Side of the Moose" in the nearby Australia pub, the evening before.
We enjoyed browsing the ' Moose merchandise in the shop too...good pressie ideas here, at reasonable prices - as were the beers.
Huge selection of craft ciders as well.
Easy access and friendly staff. Great little visit. Thanks guys.

Due to Covid-19, the tours of the actual micro-brewery in Madoc Street are on hold until next year. However, I enjoyed a browse around their small brewery shop yesterday morning (Tuesday). It has recently moved further up the High Street nearer to The Australia Pub - you can't miss it as it stands out like the purple one in a tin of Quality Street! There was a one-way system in operation. The shelves were well stocked with award winning beers - I was tempted to buy a bottle of the Black Rock stout. They also sell various merchandise e.g. drinking glasses & clothing. I went down the steps at the back of the shop where they sold guest alcohols from other Welsh producers e.g. Aber Falls gins. The lady behind the counter was friendly and helpful. This 15 year old business also offers on-line sales.

A well stocked brewery shop close to the brewery tap, Australia pub, right in the centre of town, other Welsh brews and gins also stocked together with themed clothing and souvenir items, 4 bottles for £ 9, from the excellent selection.

Do you still offer brewery tours? We’re in the area in September and you’ll like to get one booked for 14/09 if possible

When do you start dinner tours of brewery and which days are they on please
Hello Wgrandchill - Sorry for the very late reply, I have just taken over as the Admin & Marketing person here at Purple Moose Brewery. Unfortunately we are not offering brewery tours at the moment because all the staff we have are keeping up with the demands of the Summer holidays! Sorry about this, we do have a Brewery Shop that you can visit that sells all of our beer and other's from around Wales, including gins and liqueur. We also have a brewery tap called The Australia that you can have our beer served on draft and enjoy our delicious home cooked meals!
