Up Front Brewing
Client Brewer in Strathaven, South Lanarkshire, Scotland 🏴
Established in 2015
Here at Up Front we have no loans, no investors, and no kickstarter funding - everything is paid for up front. We brew by renting space in other people’s breweries, with each batch paid for as it’s brewed.
We have very little in the way of overheads, which allows us to spend a considerable amount of time and effort into researching and experimenting with new yeast, bacteria, ingredients, and brewing techniques from around the world. We brew mostly out of 71 Brewing in Dundee, but also use other breweries as and when required.
Up Front has used both Drygate and Alechemy as a base.

Amber beer, tan head. Smells sweet and fruity. Flavour is boozy, fruity, some hops, a dash of malt. Very nice.

Shrewsbury Monthly Beer Share; Chez Sophie, 11th April 2022. Five guys all passionate about beer bringing their thoughts and offerings to split between us. Cheers Mark for the 440ml can of this. White head on a misty golden body. I got more salt than anything else, apart from a passionfruit blast and some sourness. Couldn't find any Coriander or much lemon like Kalamansi flavours. Not my sort of thing really.

440ml can @ monthly tasting, Chez Sophie, April 22. Misty gold appearance, pure white head. Excellent passionfruit character, smooth and luscious with a vibrant fruity aroma and a light salty touch emerging. Excellent fruity imperial gose.
