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.

Bottle shared in Lpndon during Scopey’s 10k - thanks to Scopey. Pours unclear orange with a creamy off-white head. Toasted bread in the nose, some citrus, earth. Light sweet flavor with bready malts, a little toffee, butterscotch, ripe orange. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Sweet finish, with sugary bread, light toffee, mellow earthy bitterness. Fine.

Lightly hazy amber beer, good cream colour head. Palate is light and semi dry and has a decent fine crispness. The malts are thin but mildly sweet. Hops bring bitterish citric peel, mild juicy orange, mild floralness and a whisper of tropical fruits. Pinch of hop spice. Light semi dry finish. Citric peel bitter linger. Good.
