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.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up from Cork & Cask. Pours clear gold with a frothy, white head. Lightly sweet with husky and grainy pale malts, mild bitter straw, lemon rind. Light bodied with massaging carbonation. Finishes with further pale grains, mild bready notes, more lightly bitter citrus rind, straw. Basic but pretty drinkable.
