Description
In 1810 the Eden Estuary was offering its crystal clear waters to the legendary Haig brothers, helping them distil and lay down some of St Andrews' finest whiskies. Before them this same site hosted the Seggie Brewery, known for their strong connections with local farmers and agricultural workers

In 2012, Eden Mill resurrected this fine brewing and spirits tradition with our own take on Scottish craft brewing and distilling. Eden Mill were Scotland's first single site brewery and distillery – we benefit from the best of local water sources, regionally grown barley and a dynamic, international team with some of the best education and experience the world can offer. Our distillers are at the forefront of experimental wood ageing and distillation methods to bring out more of the outstanding flavours found in our products.

We know our beer, gin and whisky will stand the test of time and do the tradition of St Andrews brewing and distilling proud.

Bottle. A dense, finger-thick off-white head forms over a clear, golden body. The aroma has a caramel rum-touch without the booze, some toffee and dried fruit notes, and a malty note. It’s quite sweet on the palate, but far from cloying, with a decent bitterness. Caramel, rum notes and some dried fruits. Long rum-like finish. Full body, pleasant and soft carbonation level. Quite nice this one, but lacking a bit on one-dimensional. 1401024

Crystal clear gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light and semi dry. Mild fine carbonation. Light sweet malts. Little vanilla sweetness. Light dry finish brings a whisper of rum. Quite Innis & Gunn like.
