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 />

Grimbister whilst Three Sisters is<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 />
