Description
Mixed fermentation brewery specialising in locally sourced, heavily fruited and hop-forward beers with a sense of place and seasonality.

Big flavours and bright colours, that’s what you can expect from Vault City Brewing. We’re the UK’s biggest sour beer producer and we’ve been making fruit-forward, modern sour beers in Edinburgh since 2018.

Our mixed fermentation style and distinctive house culture create the perfect base for real fruit ingredients, which gives our beer its intense aroma and flavour, not to mention the eye-catching colours.

Keg at LCBF Friday evening session. Pours hazy yellow with a filmy white head. Has some notes of pine, lemon zest, general pithy citrus. Light to medium bodied with soft carbonation. Finishes with more pine needles, nice lemony tartness. Very decent beer.
