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.

On tap at BrewDog Tower Hill. Murky muddy brown olive colour. Big fresh hop flower aroma. Like sticking your face in a bag of hops. Some sweetness from alcohol. Some dryness on the finish. Light bitterness. Lime grapefruit flavours. Light agile dipa. Good fruit. Good lightness. It sings of citrus hops. Good.
