The Arran Brewery is a microbrewery founded in March 2000 in Cladach, near Brodick. The brewery produces 8 regular cask and bottled beers - Please see a selection of these below with tasting notes.
The business went into liquidation in May 2008 and was subsequently sold to Marketing Management Services International Ltd. in June 2008. The brewery is now back in production and the beers widely available in Scotland.
Arran is only about 2 hours away from Glasgow with a 40 minute drive followed by a 50 minute ferry crossing from Ardrossan to Brodick. The island itself is well worth a visit, not only to see the brewery, but also the Arran distilery and many other atractions both man made and natural.
Check out the video at the bottom of this page. It was filmed at the Arran Brewery during a visit in July 2010.
