Starting from a very low base in the 1970s, there has been a resurgence in small and regional breweries producing a variety of beers.
Here is a list of some of the better specialist breweries:
- Moulin Brewery, Near Pitlochry, Perthshire. Adjacent to the Moulin Hotel.
- Arran Brewery, Isle of Arran.
- Broughton Ales, located in the Scottish Borders.
- Cairngorm Brewery, Aviemore
- Caledonian Brewery Company, an Edinburgh based brewery founded in 1869.
- Harviestoun Brewery, Alva, Clackmannanshire
- Innis and Gunn Brewing Company, Edinburgh
- Inveralmond Brewery, Established 1997 in Perth
- Traquair House Brewery. Located in the 18th century wing of Scotland’s oldest continually inhabited house.
- Williams Brothers Brewing Company, Alloa, Clackmannanshire
Beers from the above producers can be potent with Alcohol By Volume ranging between 3.8pct and 8.0pct. but mostly in the 6pct-8pct band. Be careful!!
