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.

On cask @ the Guildford Arms. Appearance - amber with a decent head. Nose - some red fruits as well as some apple. Also, a nice malty note lurking. Taste - more of the same. The fruit and malt is very well integrated. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - yeah, like this!

Cask at the Pot Still, Glasgow. It pours clear deep amber with a decent off-white head. The nose is soft, light sweetness, caramel/toffee, wood and brown bread. The taste is mildly bitter, toasty, brown bread, cereal, caramel, leather and wood with a dry finish. Light-medium body and fine carbonation. Simple and easy drinking stuff. Fine to accompany a malt, but far from a challenging brew.

Cask at Munroe’s Glasgow. It pours darkest brown with a small beige head. The nose is sweet, toasty, chocolate, reisen chocolate chew, caramel and some spice. The taste is rich chocolate, big chilli heat, earth, light vegetal notes, caramel and warming spice with a lingering spicy finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. Big chilli aspect! Chocolate provides a touch of balance. Fun stuff. Leaves you feel all tingly.... Some will love this and some hate it.
