80

CALEDONIAN BREWERY Caledonian 80/- 4.1%
A russet brown coloured beer with a malty, fruity aroma. Smooth and creamy, very easily drinkable. Good balancing dryness with clovery spiciness in a softly hoppy finish.  Strongly delivers the Caledonian Brewery tradition: quality ingredients brewed in unique direct-fired open coppers.

 

 

 

HARVIESTOUN BREWERY Bitter & Twisted 3.8%
A sharp, blond beer with a superb, fresh hop profile combining aromatic Hallertau Hersbrucker with spicy Challenger. It is finished by late hopping with Styrian Goldings, which gives sharpness like the twist of a lemon. A truly refreshing beer and strangely moreish.

DarkIsland02

ORKNEY BREWERY Dark Island 4.6%
The Orkney Brewery’s flagship beer. Exhibiting a ripe, fruity, chocolate nose. Dark Island is balanced by flavours of dark chocolate, figs and nuts from the combination of roasted malts and rich hops.

 

ORKNEY BREWERY Skull Splitter 8.5%
Takes its name from Thorfinn Hauskaluif - the 7th Viking Earl of Orkney. Sophisticated, satiny smooth with a deceptively light character, it is a tribute to our colourful forebear.

STRATHAVEN ALES Claverhouse 4.5%
This red session aleis hopped with the sharp citrus flavours of North American Oregon hops along with a blend of traditional Scottish Crystal and Red malts

BRIDGE of ALLAN BREWERY Glencoe Wild Oat Stout  (Organic)  4.5%
Brewed in the heart of Scotland  using the finest malts, pure Scottish water and wild oats. This traditional stout has a creamy, toasted oatmeal flavour and is gently hopped. Complex roast malt aromas and a smooth silky aftertaste are characteristics of this ale. This stout is as mysterious and compelling as the Glen it is named after.

Glencoe-Pump-Clip02

DarkMunro03

THE HIGHLAND BREWING Co Dark Munro 4.0%
Appearance: Dark chocolate brown in the glass with a good white head, if held to a light very dark ruby red shines through.
Nose: Soft chocolate malt ‘coffee’ notes are evident with a mere hint of hop.
Taste: All depends on venting, when fresh the chocolate malt is crisp and may have a hint of phenols, when well vented or halfway through
 

THE ISLE OF SKYE BREWING CO Black Cuillin 4.5%
Rolled roast oatmeal and honey.
It takes its name from the world renowned mountains of the Isle of Skye, and is a unique strong flavoured dark ale.
