At our shop in Oban, Argyll, and on our online store, we are proud to bring you the best beers from Scotland and beyond, including some lesser-known breweries that deserve your attention.

Our curated selection represents the diversity and creativity of Scottish craft brewing, offering you a chance to explore exciting flavors and support small, independent breweries.

The Rise of Craft Brewing

Over the past decade, craft brewing has gained incredible popularity worldwide, and Scotland is no exception. The country’s rich brewing heritage has been reimagined by a new generation of brewers who are passionate about quality and innovation. These talented individuals are constantly pushing the boundaries of what beer can be, creating unique and flavorful brews that captivate the senses.

While traditional Scottish ales continue to hold their rightful place, there is a growing movement of breweries experimenting with new styles and techniques. From hazy New England IPAs bursting with tropical fruit flavors to barrel-aged beers with complex layers of whiskey and oak, the possibilities are endless.
