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.

330ml bottle: BBE of Aug 2016. Poured into a Chimay chalice on 17th June 2016 during a ’Random Beer Rating Evening’ with myself. Light amber bodied, the head a smooth white blanket of foam. Dry finish to this interesting beer. The nose is weak in my opinion, some faint metallic and grainy notes which didn’t set my heart beating any faster. The taste however is complicated and far from weak: spicy, citrusy and pale malty in nature it oozes flavour. Liked it.

Can at Leighton’s, thanks to the host! It pours clear amber with a thick off-white head. The aroma is sweet, rich tea biscuit, dull orange, tangerine and brioche. The taste is crisp, bitter, orange peel, tangerine, waxy peel, rich tea biscuit, brioche and toffee. Medium body and fine, foamy carbonation. A bit messy perhaps. Fair.

Bottleshare at Lancaster Gate. Thanks to Leighton. Can. Almost clear gold beer, thin pale cream colour head. Palate is light, semi dry and has decent fine carbonation. Smooth pale malts, quite sweet. Very light pine and citrus hop. Smooth semi dry finish. Pretty sweet, needs work.
