About
The Edinburgh Beer Factory is a family run, independent brewery launched in 2015 to make people think again about beer and Scotland. Founded by the Dunsmore family, we’ve grown to great big family of 20+ team members.
Like Edinburgh we’re creative, inventive and outward-looking. We combine old and new ideas and techniques to create beers of beauty.
Inspired by the Edinburgh-born ‘Father of Pop Art’ Eduardo Paolozzi, we showcase the art of brewing. Paolozzi took everyday objects and transformed them into works of art; we take overlooked and underestimated beer styles and present them at their beautiful best.

(Bottle, 0.33 l - BBE 12/2020, from a supermarket, 20190426) The beer poured amber and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had grass, earth and herbalness. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were earth, herbalness, sweetness, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was herbal and bitter. A thin brew with unpleasant hops.
