Description
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 from Appellation Wines, cheers Ash! Pours hazy golden with a thick white head. Aromas of banana, light lemon and faint smoke. Taste is more banana, faint spice, more smoke as it warms up. Not bad.

Medium white beer over clear copperish-golden beer. Sulphur, grains, honey. Honey, herbs, dried Thai herbs, DMS in high concentration giving saltiness, shrimp. Light body, low carbonation. DMS overload, but still quite palatable. Txs to Stef! 6/4/6/3/13

Bottle from the Edinburgh Beer Factory shop. Appearance - a kind of caramel orange colour. Big fluffy tan head. Nose - hazelnuts and oatmeal. Chocolate biscuit comes through later. Taste - burnt bread up front, then chocolate biscuits. Some hazelnuts again. The burnt bread comes back on the finish. Palate - medium bodied and creamy. Nice long creamy/crunchy finish. Overall - good example of the style. They haven't relied a lot on the use of hops to take it away from its true style and have pulled off a good one.
