March 2013 Featured Brewery – Inveralmond Brewery Limited

CellarMonk’s “Featured Brewery” for the month of March is the The Inveralmond Brewery Limited, located in Perth, Scotland.

History 

Replacing the last brewery in Perth (closed its doors in 1966), Inveralmond opened its doors in 1997. Seemingly in a constant state of growth since then, the brewery just added three new 30 barrel triple-purpose vessels (fermentation, conditioning and carbonating). 

Beers
 
Inveralmond has crafted a number of great beers making use of the naturally pure waters of the Perthshire region. Their lineup includes both classic and seasonal ales. The classic lineup starts with Independence, (a 3.8% Best Bitter) and winding through Ossian (4.1% Best Bitter), Thrappledouser (4.3% Best Bitter), Lia Fail (4.7% Premium Bitter), Sunburst (4.8% Bohemian Pilsner) and ending with Blackfriar (a 7.0% Wee Heavy). For seasonal ales, Inveralmond produces Duncan’s IPA (4.4% Engish IPA – Available February-April), Inkie Pinkie (3.7% Small Beer – Available May-September), Pundie (5.0% Premium Bitter/ESB – Available October & November) and lastly Santa’s Swallie (4.3% Christmas Ale – Available late November & December).
