Description
State of Kind Brew Co launched in spring 2021. As you can imagine, it’s taken a fair bit of planning, and yes, you’re right, we basically started a brewery in the middle of a global pandemic. This isn’t quite as crazy as it sounds. In a funny way, it’s ideal: if we can make it work now, we can make it work any time, whatever the world throws at us. We’re launching first as a gypsy brewer, with four gorgeous core beers created using spare capacity on the premises of some kind, creative and brilliant brewing friends. But we don’t plan to stay on the move for long. Once the pubs have fully re-opened and we’ve recovered from the celebrations, the plan is to launch our very own state-of-the-art brewery and taproom. Hopefully, if all goes to plan, by the time Christmas 2021 rolls around you can come and say cheers in person...
It opened its own brewery and taproom in Summer 2022.

Can. A mild to medium haze on this orange gold beer, small and short lived pale cream colour head. Airy smooth palate, mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Smooth light pale malts, a nice light creamy sweetness. Soft light pine. Persistent hop spice. Good Nectaron stone fruits, a vague honeyish vibe. Mellow citrus. Maybe a touch of Nelson winey grape on the back end, if you are looking for it. Smooth and semi dry finish brings a mild bitterness and leaves a long hop spicy linger. Good dipa.

From tap at Wee Vault, Edinburgh. Grassy and juicy NZ hop, orange, tropical fruits, dankish hop, bit peppery almost. Zesty and moderate bitter with a hint of hopburn that doesn't get bothersome.
