Description
Up Front Brewing was founded in 2015 with the aim of sharing our love of exceptional beers and great artwork, with a wider audience.

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.

Sample (thanks omhper!). Pitch black colour with a mediumsized brown head. Aroma is liquorice, coffee, some roast and mild syrupy tones too. Flavour is syrup, some sweetness with mild peat smoke as well as some maple syrup and a bit liquorice too. Pleasantly balanced and hides the ABV really well.
