About
Our real ales are hand crafted with the local palate in mind, and to exacting standards. We take great pride in the production of our products which are brewed traditionally, with no concentrates, colourings or extract and with accent on the taste of yesteryear. When was the last time you savoured the aroma of a mass produced beer, or tasted its wholesome natural flavour?

Opened in 1995. Moved in 2000 from Gillfoot Brewery, Southerness, Kirkbean.

Cask at 2014 GBBF. Saturday dregs tick and run. Aroma is tart apple, tangy berry fruit, touch of bile. Hazed yellow straw coloured pour with fleeting head. Flavour is apple, lavender, floral, wgtat. Quite refreshing. Palate is light and doughy . weird but not bad.

Cask at Cloisters. Pours clear dark brown, thin bubbly white head. Aromas are mostly vinegar at first, resolving to fruit cake (maybe sour fruit cake?). Taste is more of the same, sadly. Didn’t finish this, which is rare for me.

Bottle from the Scottish Real Ale shop. Appearance - amber red with a nice head. Nose - subtle toffee and slightly elusive biscuits. Taste - much more pronounced toffee and biscuits Palate - medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - really enjoyable.
