Description
We are a small craft beer micro brewery based in East Lothian. We were born in Pencaitland but now brew our artisan beers in our own custom built 10hL brewery in West Barns. Both our directors are Haddington born and bred, our brand design is by a Haddington designer, our grain is sourced from Drem and our spent grain is eaten by the coos in Athelstaneford! We are extremely proud of our East Lothian heritage and use the quality produce of the county where possible to produce our superior quality beers.

Our company slogan is drink, blether, be happy and we have developed our beers and branding with that in mind.

We absolutely love what we do and what we create and aim to put a smile on the handsome faces of our customers from our bright and eye catching branding and Scottish slang themed names through to the handcrafted fresh, crisp, tasty beers we produce! Slàinte!

Can thanks to the brewery. Appearance - golden with a very slight haze. Small but attractive lacing. Nose - sweetcorn and green bean. Taste - green beans and a little touch of herbs. Palate - light bodied, cleansing bitterness. Overall - good example of the style.

Can from Westhill Service Station. It pours Lightly hazy golden with a medium, fluffy white head. The aroma is sweetish, doughy white bread, cereal, stale pub vibes, stinky guff, grass and some mint. The taste is crisp, dry, some bitterness, butter - sweet, cereal, grassy, herbal accents, menthol, has that farty, almost farmyard character in the taste also.... sweet manure, doughy white bread and rich tea biscuit with a drying, bitter finish. Average body and moderate carbonation. Quite stinky lager. Sweet manure is not what I want. A shame as I like the rest of it.

Third by cask, shared with Finn on the third day of GBBF Winter 20, Astbury Bar. Clingy lacing from a dissipating white head. Next-to-clear warm golden body. Herbal hops on the nose, citric hints. Decent taste of ripe lemon and earthy malts followed by note of resinous bitterness to the finish. Satisfying. (Birmingham 06.02.2020).

Bottle from Westhill SS. It pours clearish orange with a small white head. The aroma is quite sharp, strong balsamic vinegar, peach melba, sour yoghurt and strawberry. The taste is crisp, dry, rather tart upfront, puckering, acidic, salty, peach, raspberry, peach melba, salt and vinegar crisps with a dry, slightly acidic finish. Medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. Quite harsh stuff. A fairly basic sour.

Bottle at Craig's. Pours hazy yellow gold with a thin white head. Aromas of peach, raspberry and light lactic funk. Sour taste overwhelms things a bit for me.
