The Brewery: “Situated in Larbert, Tryst Brewery has been producing quality ales since 2003. John McGarva, owner and head brewer, is always focusing on adding new twists to traditional recipes to create unique takes on classic ales. All of our brews are made with Scottish malt from Mungoswells in East Lothian with additions from Bairds Malt to add depth of colour and flavour. To keep our beers evolving we use hops from all over the globe allowing for a broad range of tastes and aromas.”
The Beer: “A rounded, slightly sweeter, refreshing amber ale that is well balanced with a hop dominated dry finish.”
Once brewed on site at the Lade Inn itself, adjacent to which is the Scottish Real Ale shop where yours truly prized open the wallet to procure a selection of research samples. A very tasty pint and not too hoppy for my fussy palate. 4.5% A.B.V.
