71 Brewing — Local services in Scotland

A fantastic micro brewery completely destroying the competition in Craft Ales.

In 2020 they released an app for deliveries and table ordering, as well as closing the indoor bar and renovating the back of the brewery for an outdoor bar.

Deliveries have always been exceptional: well packaged, always as ordered, delivered safely & securely and commonly delivered quicker than I was expecting. Prices are a little high and the app has a problem bringing the billing postcode across as the delivery address but overall the service is worth the cost and any minor hassle.

The outdoor bar area (V2) is also excellent. Staff are friendly, patient and prompt. The layout is safe and well arranged. It has a solid structure overhead cover and comfortable seats.

The assault on my taste buds had me wanting to drink it all in one go: but no, I savoured every mouthful. Oh boy, hard to find superlatives that fit this review without sounding, well, 'gushy.' Truthfully, search them out, you so won't be...

A taproom with 10 good taps, outstanding staff, and perhaps the best bottleshop in Dundee.

Good rotation of beers both on draft and in the bottleshop, some proper gems and rarities end up hidden in this tiny taproom that looks more like a student flat than a bar at first glance.

Don't be put off though - this hidden gem is Dundee's best kept beer secret. The beers they make range in styles and they come up with some winners too.

Tell your friends! Or don't, and make this hidden piece of Dundee all...
