Devils Pulpit
A double dry-hopped pale ale at 4.5%. The brewery describes a full tropical aroma leading to flavours of citrus and stone fruit and a sweet, juicy finish. Ekuanot, Eclipse and Mosaic are the hops; they account for the mango, mandarin and peach side of the beer. It shares its name with the Devil's Pulpit, the narrow sandstone gorge at Finnich Glen south-east of Loch Lomond.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Devils Pulpit
Cold enough to sharpen the hop aroma without numbing the palate. Around 7–9°C keeps the citrus and pine vivid without losing bitterness definition.
The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
Drink fresh — hop aroma fades fast. Best within 3 months of canning or bottling.
