Description
Donnie and Ian started the Abernyte Brewery back in 2016 when hobby brewing got slightly out of hand. Strongly influenced by Bavarian brewery standards and styles, we use a German-made 500l Braumeister system to run out very small batches of lager and ale. Distribution is limited to the Carse of Gowrie, a rich agricultural area between Perth and Dundee on the North of the Tay estuary.

26/8/2019. Sample courtesy of danlo, cheers Ed! Pours slightly hazy pale golden with a firm frothy ice white head. Aroma of hops, citrus, grass, malt, caramel, biscuit, hint of passion fruit, grapefruit and banana. Medium sweetness and light bitterness. Moderate body, oily texture, above average carbonation. Started well, nice aroma, but faded.
