We’re delighted to announce that we’ve teamed up with Hibs for the 26/27 season with two fantastic new cans. OK, so we might be a slightly late to kick-off - but what can we say - making cans look this good takes time. Inspired by this season’s modern classic kits, we’ve quite literally dressed these cans for a trip to (or from) Easter Road.

And talking of Easter Road, these b**rs were brewed and packaged less than a mile away, so you can rest assured the contents are as fresh and slick as they look on the outside:

1875 L***r is a no-nonsense, delicious Pilsner-style b**r, brewed with Scottish-grown base malts, a crisp, clean l***r yeast and classic Czech hops.
Away Day IPA is fresh and zesty session pale with a huge hoppy kick. Hazy with tropical notes - an ideal b**r for an away day treat.

Available now from our webshop or direct from the brewery - let’s kick on from the international break in style!

🍑 Buck’s Peach! 🍑

You guys ask about this one a lot!
Apparently not totally overshadowed by its big Melba sibling, Buck’s Peach is back with a completely different take our favourite fruit adjunct 🍑

A fresh and tasty Wheat Pale Ale with lashings of fresh Peach & Orange, dry hopped with Citra & Mosaic.

Fruity, Fresh, Juicy, Light & Piney. Absolutely smashing.

👖GOODBYE JONNY 👖

Jonny has been an integral part of our small production team for the past 5 years. A pasta eating, heavy lifting, juice drinking legend, his expertise and strength will be sorely missed on the brewery floor. Along with his friendly face, seen dragging two kegs up delivery staircases (keep up Allan).

We never got round to making his Pistachio Pale Ale.. now everyone’s making them.

This man wears jeans like no one else and will live forever in our memories every time we put a pair of jeans on.

All the best with your new career as a NASA ASTRONAUT, or something similar I think.

🍍 SUPER SUB SESSION 🍍

Pineapple Radler Edition

Radler - German for Cyclist!

The radler was born in June 1922, when a Bavarian innkeeper named Franz Xaver Kugler mixed his dwindling b**r supply 50/50 with sparkling lemon soda to satisfy an estimated 13,000 thirsty cyclists who flooded his b**r garden outside Munich.

We’ve taken this concept and SMASHED pineapple juice in to the mix. Your perfect mid week treat at a super sessionable 2.5%

Available on our online shop or pouring exclusively this weekend at
