The Clock Red Craft Ale was the first Eden Mill ale to be brewed at St Andrews. Locals demanded that the old clock on ’The Mill’ wall kept ticking when we started brewing. So we named the beer out of respect for them and the clock. It’s beer o’clock so let’s raise a glass to them all and to the tradition of brewing at St Andrews. The Clock red craft ale is a traditional ale with a historic tone. We wanted to create a beer reminiscent of the beer that would have been drunk at the time of the Seggie distillery. Amber in colour, this pale malt beer is our take on a traditional Scottish red ale. It’s a hoppy brew with hints of pepperiness the sweetness of caramel from our dark crystal malt. We know you’ll enjoy.

330 ml bottle, as Eden Mill St. Andrews The Clock Scottish Red Ale, 4.3% ABV. It appears now to be brewed in St. Andrews, but according to the brewery website it will soon be discontinued. Bought in The Howff, Aberdeen. Reddish colour, small off-white head. Moderate dryish and "dusty" malty aroma. Malty flavour, mid between dry and sweet, some light roasty notes, moderate hops. Not remarkable.

Cask at the Clockwork pub in Mount Florida, Glasgow. Light red, flat, no head. Malt aroma - it’s not a ’malt bomb’ as the scent is gentle, but definitely malt-led - with some redcurrant notes. Taste offers up no surprises: sweet and malty with some gentle fruity hop bitterness in the background with gives balance to the long finish. Oily body but it kind of works for the style. Good enough without pushing the boat out. Not sure that I’d have another.

Bottle from the brewery. Hazy amber/brown body with a thin off-white head. No lacing. Mild aroma of red apple and lightly roasted malt. Flavour of caramel and berries. Thin body with a light, watery texture. Soft fizz. Quite bland.
