ABOUT US

Welcome.

Tucked away on the scenic Isle of Gigha, off the west coast of Scotland, lies a hidden gem that’s brewing up a storm. Our microbrewery is dedicated to crafting unique, small-batch beers that capture the essence of this stunning Hebridean island. From the crisp, refreshing taste of our Lager to the rich, malty flavour of our Golden ale, every pint is a love letter to this special place.
