Description
Established in 2017 in the most Eastern point of mainland Scotland, we brew our beers in small batches in the nautical town of Peterhead. At Brew Toon we are passionate about creating bold, adventurous craft beers, packed full of flavour and character. We strive to use local ingredients where ever possible and pride ourselves on this provenance.

Brew Toon was born out of a passion for brewing and craftsmanship in general.

Our brewery is based on a historic site in Peterhead, which was once home to "Hunter & Sons - Tanfield Brewery". This heritage is hugely important to us and massively influential in how we run our brewery today.

Bottle from Appellation Wines. Appearance - dark brown to black and opaque. Thin crema head. Nose - booze and wood. Molasses and burnt toffee. Taste - more molasses, wood and booze. Interesting notes of peanut and bubblegum at the back. Palate - rich and close to full bodied. Though it's rich and sweet, it remains fairly balanced and drinkable. Overall - good beer!
