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.

Cask (return system) at The Abbotsford, Edinburgh. Pale golden colour, low head. Very nice aroma of fruity hops (citrus, tropical fruits). The flavour is very refreshing with zesty and fruity hops throughout, but is not too bitter. The mouthfeel is maybe a bit thin. A nice beer though.

Cask conditioned at The Three Judges, Glasgow. Golden colour, minimal head. Lovely citrussy aroma, also with notes of flowers and tropical fruits. The hoppy flavour has also citrus and tropical fruits, much like Crouch Vale Brewers Gold Extra, but with a more distinct bitterness in the finish. Another great beer!

Cask at Bon Accord, Glasgow. A golden beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma is sweet malty with a flowery hop note, while the flavor is sweet malty with light fruity notes, leading to a bitter finish. The body is thin.

Bottle. Clear, golden body, with a minimal white head. Cellar, hops, a little fruityness and some pale malt in the aroma, but not much, it is quite boring. Malt, fruit and hops in the flavor. Thin body. Quite balanced finish, but the beer is boring. It also feels like it has passed the BB-date, but there was no date on the bottle. (070621)
