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.

Bottled. An amber beer with a thick off-white head. The aroma has notes of straw and malt as well as lighter notes of caramel. The aroma has notes of malt and caramel as well as light notes of metal, leading to a dry, bitter, and metallic finish. Boring.
