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.

Keg at BD Inverurie. It pours clear gold with a medium, fluffy white head. The aroma is soft, doughy white bread, biscuit, toasty grain, cereal and grass. The taste is crisp, dry, sweet doughy vibes, grassy bitterness, herbal, touch of spice, metallic edge and a bit grainy with a dry finish. Medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. Nothing to write home about. Would have thought this was more of a macro lager than a microbrewed one. Fair.

On draught at BrewDog Leicester as part of Collabfest 2019. Aroma is low, what I do get is slightly astringent and metallic. Tastes quite metallic as well but there is a welcome note of biscuity malt which lingers through to the finish. Thin body with low to medium carbonation. Not much to it but it grew on me.

330ml bottle. Clear, dark chestnut colour with ruby glimmer and small to average, thick, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, beige head. Fruity, resinous and piney, hoppy aroma, slightly toasty, nutty malty background, hints of red berries, a touch of marmalade. Taste is dry, slightly bitter, toasty, nutty malty and slightly fruity, minimally spicy hoppy, a touch of red berries and peppermint, marmalade middle layer; toasty, nutty finish with an earthy touch of Brazil nut. Pretty good.
