This easy drinking, crisp, clean Pilsner has been traditionally lagered in tank to ensure you receive the full flavours of German Tettnang hops and our Bavarian yeast. Theres no messing around with this one. Leith Pils pair perfectly with friends, chilling and good times. A classic for a reason, and now Gluten Free!

From tap at Campervan Taproom, Edinburgh. Crisp and grassy with soft grainy malt. Moderate bitter with a dry-ish finish. Refreshing.

First live music encounter in Edinburgh during this drink, a cover of KC And The Sunshine Band with guitars only. Not bad. Same for the beer, although a lager so hard to be outstanding. Clean, crisp and a bit hoppy. After this "You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar..."

[June 2023] Very slightly hazy straw colour with a bubbly white head and a grassy aroma. Nice and fresh, a little fruity, a little grassy with crisp bitterness finishing things off

Straw malt base, very restrained hops, medium light body, meh, no idea why this is more expensive than the other options on the menu

Can at home in Hackney - sourced from Cask & Cork. Pours clear gold with a small, creamy white head. Lightly sweet, some crispy pale grains, a little flinty minerality, mild biscuity notes, light bitter straw. Light bodied with average carbonation. Pretty clean finish, further hay, pale grains. Not bad overall.
