Description
Futtle was brought to life in 2019 by us, Lucy & Stephen, partners in all things life, work and beer.

Now, along with a small team, we make a range of organic beers that follow the seasons here on the edges of the coastal village of St Monans, in the East Neuk of Fife.

Inspired by our love of the farmhouse brewing tradition of Northern Europe, and the Scottish coastline we look out on, we have focused on brewing and blending rustic, nourishing, natural beers that reflect our location.

330ml can from Futtle website - hazy pale yellow body with a short lived white top. Slightly watery start, rather sweet citrus tang with a bit of herby lemon background. Sweetened a bit by the woodruff, reminds you of a Berliner Weiss with the green syrup.

330ml can from Futtle Brewery shop - slightly hazy gold body with a short lived white top. Sweet malty character, feels like there is some adjunct in there to give it a fruity rounded boost.

330ml can from brewery - cloudy orange body, not much head. Sweet grainy nose, bready yeast, flavour cuts through nicely with the citrus and a bit of herby grassiness. Not pretty, but very easy going.
