Beer Park, a bottle shop and bar located at Dafen Trade Park in Llanelli, has been named the UK’s Best Independent Beer and Cider Retailer at the prestigious Drinks Retailing Awards.
The award was presented to owner Dave Timbrell-Hill and Fran Austin at a ceremony at The Dorchester Hotel in London.
Beer Park opened in 2021 and offers a selection of more than 600 beers and ciders, including many craft beers from Wales. In addition to its beer and cider selection, it hosts regular tasting events.
“We still can’t quite believe this – Beer Park was dreamed up in the middle of lockdown to bring all the beers I loved to Llanelli,” said Dave Timbrell-Hill.
“Fortunately, others also loved these beers, and this award is really for all the customers who’ve kept us busy for the last four years. We’re so grateful for their support.
“There are so many great beers in the world, and Wales alone boasts 90 breweries, but these beers weren’t available locally. By bringing these to Llanelli, we’ve introduced customers to new beers they love.”
