Inveralmond Independence
Independence is a state of mind. We believe our brewery is independent of mind because we stick passionately to what we believe in: brewing the finest beer we can to the best of our ability. Available throughout the year, Independence is a classic, full bodied and malty beer with subtle hints of mixed fruits and punches of spice. A perfect balance of Pilgrim and Saaz hops delivers a high quality, nicely rounded ale, with earthy and slightly spicy notes.

The Inveralmond Brewery
The last brewery in Perth (Wrights) closed its doors in 1966. More than 30 years later, on 14th May 1997, The Inveralmond Brewery opened its doors and began brewing beautiful beer from the heart of Scotland.

This breathtakingly beautiful scenery provided the inspiration for the original recipes. For centuries Perthshire has been renowned for its pure waters. Several of the bottled waters available today throughout the world are sourced from Perthshire’s…

Interview with a Homebrewer – A Man in Brewniform
Our latest interviewee has a busy schedule. This is primarily due to the fact that that schedule doesn’t belong to him. Sitting in the Comfy Computer Chair of Fame long enough to complete this interview I am sure was a challenge. Between his duties as an active duty serviceman, expectant father and active homebrewer and blogger (he’s prolific on Twitter too), it’s surprising he had time to put together such impressive answers. Being a former soldier myself, I solute his service. Being the editor of this website about beer, I salute his enthusiasm for not only his homebrewing hobby, but his intense interest in the craft beer community. Welcome to…

The Fire Pit BBQ – Beer Dinner
To be clear, I am not a foodie (yet). I don’t play one on TV and I did not stay at a Holiday Inn Express the night before this beer dinner. On the evening of January 14th, I had the pleasure of attending my first beer dinner. I have been drinking beer for quite some time, but this was my first experience being served a meal in which each course (of five) had a beer element to it. The beer dinner took place at a local eatery by the name of The Fire Pit. Normally, the food produced by this establishment is of the smokey variety. This culinary trait was…
