Stewart Brewing — Restaurant in Scotland

I am not a drinker but I had heard the pizzas here are amazing so we had to pay a visit. We came for lunch and it was relatively quiet. The car park is small but there are plenty of spaces to park on the street. The location is actually very good as it’s slightly out the way but not too far. You get a really relaxed vibe when coming here with a mix of stools and ordinary tables to sit at. I’d imagine it will get busy in the summer with the outdoor seating area. I like how it’s an open kitchen so you can watch the man do his work. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The menu is a good size and not overwhelming and I like how they have specials and they change the menu now and again. My wife went with the locally caught haggis pizza. I was tempted by that also but ended up going with truffle pudding pizza. We also got the red one garlic pizza bread on the side. From the pizzas the haggis one was better. It was that good that my wife only gave me one slice despite being very full. The dough was excellent and held the pizzas perfectly. It was cooked well underneath and the flavours on the pizza went perfectly together. This could potentially be the best pizza my wife has ever had. The truffle garden pizza was also really nice but not on the same level. Again, the pizza base was well cooked but feel that the black pudding on the pizza was a bit much for me. I kept thinking that the pizza was burnt because of the taste but I think it was just the black pudding. I usually love white base pizzas but this one wasn’t as good this time. It’s just personal preference so I reckon if I ordered something else I would have enjoyed it more. Both pizzas weren’t greasy/oily at all and I loved it how each table came with pizza slicers, chilli oil and flakes. The red one garlic pizza bread was fine but we wish we had ordered just ordinary garlic bread because we felt that the tomato sauce ruined it a bit. Overall, this place warrants a 5 stars and we will definitely be back to try the...

We had a brewery tour yesterday. 🤩 Booked a table, to have pizza before the tour. Wanted to try some beer (20 on the menu), asked for beer flight but the waitress has never heard about such a thing 🤔. It would be good to introduce it... Anyway, the beer we ordered was delicious, tried Hazy IPA Pinapple & Pinky and the Grain shandy first. Our pizza arrived quickly and was truly marvellous! (Capricciosa for me, Buffalo chicken for my husband). We had time for another beer before the tour, we had Black and Blue Sour & Moa Mountain. Excellent again. The tour guide, Jeff, was very welcoming, informative, answered all my questions. 🤩 We enjoyed the tour very much! There is a video from the humble beginnings (and you can see the first brewery kit later in the brewery! 😃) to recent times, there is a walk around the brewery - with interesting facts about the ingredients, brewing and packaging, you can take photos and taste some beers, buy Stewart-themed souvenir - and beer to take some home with you in a beautiful growler 😉. The only thing I didn't like is, that last order is at nine in the bar. So we finished our brewery tour, and than we hardly had any time to enjoy more beer in the bar. And sooo many more to try, we have to go back 😁. We are thinking of a "Brew it yourself"...

My dad and I brewed our own beer at the Craft Beer Kitchen in the heart of the brewery. This was our second time brewing our own batch of beer after an enjoyable first attempt. As part of the brewing package you attend two times, the first time to brew the beer and the second visit to bottle it all. Each visit lasts 2-3 hours.

Our guide Adam was really friendly, knowledgeable and very easy to talk to. He also gave us a look around the brewery between our brewing stages and he was open to any questions we had.

The only issue we had was in relation to our label design - it printed in different dimensions to the actual label used by Stewart's. The instruction form we were given still stated the old label sizes at the top. This meant that our larger width label was compressed and as a result, it doesn't look very good. We'd spent a bit of time designing our own label, so it was a wee bit disappointing to see it squished up. I queried a member of staff about it and there wasn't really much he could say.

All in all though it's a great experience and we definitely...
