Description
Scotland has a deeply fascinating history when it comes to brewing and we wanted to pay homage to these roots when creating our name. Calton Hill Brewery in Edinburgh was the first brewery in Britain to create lager way back in 1835. The small suburb that the brewery called it’s home earned the name Cauld Toon as it sat directly in the in the cold shadow of Arthur’s Seat. Over time, this colloquially became Cal-ton. Carlton Hill could therefore be known as Cold Town Hill, and suddenly our name was born.

440ml can from my mate Gordon, drank at home on 26th September 2025. Clean and clear golden amber body, white crown. Orange like malty front to the taste, some floral notes in the nose, soft brioche undertones, my sweet tooth really liked it
