Description
Loch Lomond Brewery started life in our kitchen in Luss on the shores of Loch Lomond.

A desire to brew beer and create a family business that would allow the whole family to get involved we started in 2011 in Alexandria.

Now having brewed a number of award winning beers including CAMRA Champion Beer of Scotland in 2017 and SIBA Supreme Cask Champion of the UK in 2016, we have recently rebranded to include a number of new beers in cask, keg, bottle and can.

Still brewing on our original 10bbl kit our passion has not faded - in fact we are probably more fanatical now about our existing beers and new recipes than ever before.

March 2022: 440 ml can, from Gulating Ølutsalg, Stavanger. ABV is 4.5%. Hazy yellow colour, moderate white head. Aroma of citrus, peaches and tropical fruits. Light bodied as expected. The flavour is not too sweet, and has notes of citrus, yellow stonefruits and tropical fruits again, a moderate hop bitterness in the finish. Might buy again, but only on a hot summer's day.
