Description
Cross Borders’ origins trace back to an illicit biscuit cartel run by our two founders in primary school. This brewery IS THE RESULT OF YEARS OF friendship, HARD WORK, EXPERIENCE, AND a refusal to grow up. Based in leafy midlothian we brew braw beer you’ll want to drink again and again (responsibly of course).

Can from Westhill Service Station. It pours lightly hazy golden with gigantic foamy white head. The aroma is fresh, zingy citrus, lemongrass, grass, weed, dankness and spice. The taste is crisp, dry, bitter, slightly sharp, green, weedy, dank, peppery spice, straw and some minerals. Light body and moderate carbonation. Flavourful for the abv, but perhaps a touch harsh? Nae bad anyhow.
