Birthed during the early days of the pandemic — signed a lease for a brewery space by the Shore in Leith in January 2020, spent the subsequent lockdown doing the space up before opening in 2021. Taproom on a raised platform overlooking the brewery kit. Known for extremely well-made beers across Kölsch, IPA, stout, and black lager.

How we measure this

Two thresholds are at work here:

  • The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
  • The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.

A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
