Description
We are Fyne Ales, a family-owned Scottish farm brewery. When our brewery was founded in 2001, the goal was not only to make the best quality beer, but to bring jobs, industry and tourism to our community and our quiet corner of rural Scotland. We’ve continued brewing in this spirit ever since. Drawing water from the hills and brewing in converted farm buildings, we create modern, ambitious and progressive beers in a wide variety of styles.

Pale amber with a frothy off-white head and a sweet caramel and grassy malt aroma. Medium bodied, it’s caramel sweet with a little kick of hop bitterness and a dry, slightly fruity finish

On cask at the Standing Order.
Appearance - amber and clear with an off-white head.
Nose - bread, toffee and orange.
Taste - mainly bready, some toffee.
Palate - light bodied, a bit thin and a sweet finish.
Overall - not strong enough or substantial enough for the style.

Beer Number 6 at the Wetherspoon Spring Beer Festival 2025, leaving 22 of 30 still untried. Workable Märzen, but very cask-centric in design, so almost its own beer. Decent, smooth texture too.

This might be the ultimate session ale! Incredible citrus aroma. Bery similar to the avalanche and hurricane jack, but its more pungent, and intense. Great big juicy notes of grapefruit, and a touch of skunk. Perfect body and carb, at 3.8% you could drink this forever.
