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!

Earlier Rating: 5/9/2014 Total Score: 1.7 Fra flaske på RBHD-treff ombord på Fridtjofen mai-14: beskjedent filmskum. Klar gylden. Astringent aroma, pils skal ikke lukte slik. Litt smak av karamellmalt, igjen ikke det jeg forbinder med pils. Rare greier.

0,33 flaske fra Holmen2 sin importkoffert, delt med ham ombord på Fridtjofen mai-18: lett uklar gylden med fint skum som varer. Nydelig, floral aroma og smak med appelsinmarmelade, aprikoser og hint av granskudd. Lekker, citrusaktig bitterhed i den lange og saftige ettersmaken. Flott maltkropp for en så lettvitaminisertøl. Drikkeglede.

Bottle shared with TO on board Baluba 16.05.18. Ebony. Small head. Aroma and taste of roasted malt, vanilla, dark chocolate and cigar box. Some citrusy bitterness. Too moderately hopped for a black IPA, but a good ale anyhow.
