Description
We pride ourselves on brewing exceptionally high-quality beer for you to enjoy, whether that’s at home or on an adventure. We source quality ingredients from the best suppliers, ensuring our beer is delicious and fresh.

In 2023-2024, we underwent a huge brewery expansion to increase the amount of beer we can produce, as well as improving quality and efficiency.

Our brewhouse is the first of it’s kind in the UK & Europe incorporating 4 new 6000L fermenting vessels, bringing our total to a 40,000L capacity. We have a 3-vessel fully automated brewhouse consisting of a mash conversion vessel, a lauter tun and a kettle whirlpool vessel. These three parts, in their own special ways, improve our brewing methods and increase efficiency.

Keg at Cloisters. Clear golden body with a thin white head. Low carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of orange and PVA glue. Flavour of grapefruit and tinned orange. Thin to medium body with a slick, oily texture. Light fizz. I thought this was ok, but it did make me think that grapefruit works better with lower ABV beers. My favourite beer from Campervan Brewery is still Mutiny On The Bounty - an imperial version of that beer could be outrageously good.

Keg at the Salvation, previously the Waterline. Pours hazy pale gold with no real head. Quite a boozy nose, some grapefruit and malt. Taste is a little hot too, almost solventy. Grapefruit at the back, sweet finish. Not their best.

Bottle from Oddbins in Aberdeen. It pours hazy yellow - gold with a thick white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, banana split, massive bubblegum character, melon and creaminess. The taste is bitter - sweet, crisp, tangy tinned pineapple, melon, sweet banana candy, slightly chalky, grass, green hops, slightly herbal, cracker and peppery spice with a drying finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Plenty going on here. The bubblegum on the aroma is pretty impressive. I’m not usually a fan of Sorachi, but it works here.

Bottle picked up at Oddbins, Union St Aberdeen. It pours cloudy golden with a thick, foamy white head. The aroma is fresh, sweet, zesty, stone fruits, apricot, nectarine, tangerine peel and white bread. The taste is crisp, dry, bitter, zesty, lemon, lemongrass, straw, cracker, white bread, cereal and grass with a drying finish. Light - medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Well rounded and quaffable. Stands out for a crowd of golden / blonde ales that’s for sure. Decent.
