A Premium British bitter inspired by Iron Maiden and handcrafted at Robinsons Brewery. Malt flavours and citric notes for a unique blend of Bobek, Goldings and Cascade hops give this deep golden ale a subtle hint of lemon.
Stout Jock is the definitive Scottish oatmeal stout. A luxurious harmony of crystalline caramel sweetness, sharp black and smoky roasted malts, topped off with a burst of biscuit oats and creamy chocolate finish. Hops: First Gold, Fuggles and Perle. Previously known as Dark Dunter.
Warming, malty and fruity. Pale and amber malts contribute to a mouth filling and satisfying 'Horlicks' and biscuity maltiness. Challenger and First Gold give a base note of herbal hop and Fuggle as a late hop contributes the main fragrant fruity and floral and spicy notes. Fermented slowly to give just enough fruity esters providing a complex, satisfying and warming experience.
A traditional style of ale typical of the East of Scotland. A superb classic with a deep copper hue and light bronze creamy foam. 80/- is brewed using Belhaven yeast and allowed to ferment at a slightly higher temperature. This delivers satisfying malt flavours and layers of soft fruit with a toffee finish.
A perfectly balanced beer combining subtle yet complex flavours. This creates an amber ale which is both satisfying and deliciously moreish.
Our Lager takes its inspiration from the German style of lager, Helles. It has a sweet, malty flavour balanced with a light aromatic hoppiness that makes it very refreshing. We use Naked Golden Oats to make our Lager. Naked Golden Oats are grown without husks so that even more sweetness and flavour can be extracted from the grains during brewing.
This Trans-Atlantic fusion IPA is light golden in colour with tropical fruits and light caramel on the nose. The palate soon becomes assertive and resinous with the New Zealand hops balanced by the biscuit malt. The finish is aggressive and dry with the hops emerging over the warming alcohol.
Our traditional dry Farmhouse Cider is made from the freshly pressed juice of locally grown cider apples. Varieties such as Dabinett, Kingston Black and Somerset Redstreak are blended to produce our full flavoured still cider. Aged in oak vats to produce a full rounded bodied taste.
Rattler Pear without with fizz! It's still cloudy, it's still cyder and it definitely still bites! Blending juicy pears, crisp apples, and Rattler know how, it teeters between sweet and sharp, to really hit the spot.
An amber single variety medium cider that is matured for 18 months. Fruity, well balanced, with sweetness blending with mellow tannins.
Moonshine premium cider has been infused with rum and raisin invoking the flavours of the warm and sunny West lndies. A classy cider and very drinkable.
Our brewers selected slow kilned ale malt, caramalt and biscuity malted wheat to craft a backbone which is beautifully complemented by a heady hop aroma of zesty lemon and orange. This golden ale finishes refreshing and moreish. A multi award-winning beer from the heart of Scotland.
Pale ale with a blend of hops, which includes Centennial, Simcoe and Citra, giving the beer a complex nature which is carefully balanced by a fresh, citrus aroma and light candyfloss notes.
A citrus dominated India Pale Ale, its immediate impression is soft and smooth yet builds to a crescendo of massive hoppiness accentuated by honey. An enduring, bitter finish.
A full bodied and smooth stouts with the rich aroma and robust flavours of liquorice and chocolate.
An edgy take on a classic Scottish 80 shilling ale. Similar to an English bitter ale, Wee Jock is a full-on sessionable brew, blasted with flavour, a toffee nose and a spicy wee aftertaste.
