Description
One of the newest names in the Fife craft brewing scene, SaltRock Brewing released our first beers to market in May 2021. The ethos behind the brewery, however, was born in late 2018.

Here at SaltRock we believe the world deserves great beer. Beer with flavour and substance.

We have crafted a range of malt-forward ales you can really get your teeth into.

Quality craft ales for the discerning drinker.

The name SaltRock, as well as being a representation of flavour (salt) and substance (rock), is also a contraction of Saltire and Shamrock, in recognition of the founder’s heritage, having grown up in Ireland before finding a home in Scotland.

Bottle, gift from Pam. Black body with a beige head that holds well. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of coffee and roasted malt. Flavour of Marmite, earth and roasted malt. Medium body with a creamy mouthfeel. Soft fizz. A rich and earthy porter. Very enjoyable. I’d love to try an imperial version of this.

500ml bottle from Scottish Real Ale Shop, Kilmahog - Misty deep brown, very short-lived tan head. Smoky nose, roasted malts, sharp dark chocolate, little bitter finish. Bit thin on the mouthfeel, enjoyable nonetheless.
