The brewery now encompasses Atlas and<br />
Orkney beers. Their Flagship beer is<br />
Lattitude, available in cask and bottle.<br />
Described as a Pilsner, it is crisp, fresh,<br />
citrus and hoppy. Also Three Sisters, a dark<br />
ale; Nimbus, a strong pale ale; Blizzard, a<br />
golden winter beer; Wayfarer, an Indian<br />
Pale Ale; and Tempest, a wheat beer.<br />
Food tasting suggestion: Lattitude is<br />
good with Tobermory cheddar and<br />

recommended with oysters.<br />

West<br />
A real gem, this brewery has combined<br />
modern technology with the<br />
tradition and techniques of hundreds<br />
of years of German brewing. Strict<br />
adherence to The Rheinheitsgebot<br />
beer purity law of 1516 means that only<br />
four core ingredients – water, malt,<br />
hops and yeast – are used in all WEST<br />
beers.<br />
Beers include: Hefe weizen, a wheat<br />
beer; Dunkel (a dark lager); specialty<br />
Christmas and Oktoberfest beers, a<br />
MunichRed, a light house lager; and the<br />
award-winning St Mungo lager, a<br />
homage toGlasgow’s patron saint.<br />
Food tasting suggestion: The<br />
‘Sauerbraten’, marinated and slowcooked<br />
silverside of beef in a rich<br />
gingerbread sauce, served with bread<br />
dumplings and spiced red cabbage with<br />
Dunkel.<br />
