Success at the World Beer Awards!

Head Brewer Yorick looking very pleased with his new awards....

It's finally award season and our most recent success at The World Beer Awards has extended our streak of uninterrupted brewing excellence to 25 Years!

Bronze for Dark!

We're delighted to announce that Arran Dark has once again proved itself to be the connoisseur's choice of Arran Ales, winning a well earned Bronze in Dark Beer - English Style Brown Ale category. (It's actually a Scottish Heavy but that's the section it fits into!

This award has come at the perfect time as our most recent brew is now back in stock!

Silver for the Milestone Special Reserve!

Our fantastic Milestone Special Reserve has been awarded a Silver in the Flavoured Beer - Wood Aged category. This beer is always different every year, courtesy of the casks selected for us by one of the Master Distillers at Lochranza and Lagg Distilleries, and once again working together as Island producers has been rewarded!

You can expect this award winning batch sometime this Autumn (before Christmas at the latest). We take extra care and hand bottle this beer so it's always takes a bit longer than usual

These two most recent awards being our first (but hopefully not last!) awards of 2025 nicely cap off our streak of winning at least one award for our beers every years since our opening in 2000, 25 Years of Uninterrupted Brewing Excellence!

  • After initially creating our "Award Wall" last year, we quickly ran out of room and needed a second!

  • However our second Award Wall is now full too.... There are certainly worse problems to have!

That's all from this news update from us at Arran Brewery. But make sure to keep your eye out for the new Pup on the block. Coming soon....
