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.

Chelmsford Summer Beer Fest. Cask. Lightly hazy pale gold beer, small white head. Palate is light, semi dry and crispy. Light malt base, smooth, mildly sweet. Really nice floral - lemon zing, fresh and lively. Touch of hop spice. Whisper of marmalade. Light dry crisp finish. Nice one.

Bottle from Aldi. Poured goden and slightly cloudy, with a large head. Aroma is pine with a hint of citrus. Good body, with fruit flavours to the fore, without being particularly strong tasting. Pleasant, would make a good summer session beer, but not exciting

Golden beer with a light, tangy citrus aroma. Flavour is grapefruit and a light biscuit taste to bring a touch of balance. Unfortunately there’s not much depth to the flavour. It’s nice and it’s got a pleasant dry finish but it’s not especially memorable.
