SCOTTISH BREWERIES

The finest beers from our fair land

From brewing in a cart shed in 1998 to building a new brewery ten years later, Black Isle has always been about making world class organic beer. Not only because they love great beer, but to make a statement that it can be done using naturally grown barley and hops, supporting organic farmers and growers who also care for the environment.

On their small 130 acre farm they have worked to increase biodiversity, planting over 7,000 native broadleaf trees, reinstating hedgerows, digging new ponds and creating wetlands.

They were pioneers in organic brewing and still lead the field with what they believe to be one of the most diverse range of organic beers anywhere in the world.

Black Isle Brewery now have 2 bars in Inverness and Fort William and are looking to add more in the future.

Black Isle have one goal - for customers to drink delicious fresh organic beer while at the same time supporting organic growers and producers and the rich biologically diverse and beautiful world we live in.

We’ll drink to that!

Road trip anyone?

Campervan Brewery

Contrary to popular myth, Campervan did not start brewing IN a Campervan. More that it is the metaphor for a different type of life in which control and direction are entirely flexible Since 2017 they’ve opened a taproom, a bar, an excellent core range, and some serious barrel aged beers.

Newbarns

Gordon Mackenzie and Emma McIntosh decided in 2019 that they wanted to be nearer their families in Scotland. They pre sold the first batches, brewed for them at The Kernel, and the rest is history. Their residence in Edinburgh has helped raise the profile of superb Scottish beer in the English market.

Pilot

Founded by Pat and Matt in 2012, Leith’s OG’s are still going strong with a variable smorgasbord of styles. Ahead of their time, they’ve created a space in to which many have followed. If Leith is the Capital of the Scottish beer scene, then it was Pilot that kicked it all off.

Swannay

For the past decade we’ve insisted that Rob Hill is the best brewer in Scotland. And now his son Lewis has the task of continuing that legacy.

Originally Highland Brewing Co, they renamed themselves after the breweries home. Orkney Best, Orkney IPA and Orkney Porter are now legendary.
