Description
Founded in 2012, we are the UK’s most northerly and remote brewery, based on the island of Shetland.

We are as much Scottish as we are Nordic which gives us our unique outlook on life, and it is reflected in the beers we brew.

We believe beer shouldn’t have boundaries. From lagers, to IPAs to oatmeal stouts, we have something for everyone. We brew beers that we love to drink, and we hope you enjoy them too!

33cl bottle from Beer52.com. A bright amber pour with a thin scummy-looking white head; some lime aromas; rather thin in the mouth with some tropical fruits to start, then a biscuity malt body; and some citrus flavours to finish. A rather half-hearted attempt at an American style IPA, but pleasantly drinkable.

Keg at the Counting House. It pours clear golden - amber with a medium white head. The aroma is fresh, fragrant, floral, light spice, gooseberry and white bread. The taste is crisp, bitter - sweet, clean, biscuit, floral, peppery spice, grass and flinty minerals with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Decent floral gold.

Keg at The Counting House. It pours hazy pale gold with a thick white head. The aroma is white bread, biscuit, grain, cereal, ginger and lemon. The taste is soft, sweet white bread, creamy, toasted grain, stone fruits, touch of lemon and cereal and with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. A simple lager. Not too bad.

330ml bottle from Aldi (in Berwick) - Flat dark brown body, not much on top. Muted nose, picked out burnt grain, toasted wholemeal seeded bread, a bit of coffee. Taste a bit watery, ashy on the finish. Disappointing really.
