For those not in the know, the beers are pretty solid; Thats a given! But what’s less we’ll know is that Stewart’s do an amazing breakfast at the weekends. For those craving something rich to start the day (or maybe finish off a morning on the bike, etc.) this is a must! The evening pizza menu is also very good and is kept up to date with a variety of seasonal specials.
Visited here as part of a private booking.
The tour of the brewery is preceded by a talk and slide show outlining the history of Stewart Brewery all down to the use of a kitchen sink in the very early days - see pic!
Obviously an excellent beer, of which there is a large choice, was being supped during the talk. 😀
The actual tour was interesting and various dry barleys and hops used in the brewing process could be tasted.
There is a small cafe where food can be consumed to help soak up the beer!
Especially interesting and unusual is a pizza featuring haggis which was thoroughly enjoyed!
Recommended if you an interest in beers.
We went for the brewery tour and it was a great experience. It's a smallish facility so there's not loads to see, but it's great value: £15 and you get to choose a beer on arrival (including their small batches), you get a Radical Road during the tour and a beer token to spend in the bar after. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable about the beer making process and we learned a few interesting facts, without getting the usual corporate PR stuff you get at bigger breweries. The bar and pizza kitchen is really good too, with all their beers on tap and proper Neapolitan pizza.
