The hunt is underway to find the most devoted craft beer enthusiast in Scotland.
One of Scotland’s leading craft microbreweries has launched a nationwide search to appoint an honorary chief taster to help develop its new summer beer range.
Edinburgh’s award-winning Cold Town Brewery wants Scotland’s biggest craft beer fan to approve its experimental new range including the Pina Colada Sour and Pink Lemonade Sour.
Handcrafted in small batches, Cold Town Brewery’s range of seven craft beers already undergo rigorous testing to ensure drinkers love them before they hit the taps in bars and pubs across the country.
Now, Cold Town Brewery is offering one lucky beer fan the chance to prove their tasting skills.
The brewery’s honorary chief taster will go behind the scenes at the brewery and taproom to meet the head brewer and help launch this summer’s new range of beers.
If they sell well on draught, the beers will also be made available in cans and shipped anywhere in the UK.
Cold Town Brewery’s competition winner (and guest) will also enjoy a complimentary overnight stay at Edinburgh’s luxury boutique hotel, The Rutland, and get merchandise and brews to take home.
Hayley Ransome, Head Brewer at Edinburgh’s Cold Town Brewery and Cold Town House, said:
“As one of Scotland’s most innovative microbreweries, we’ve decided to launch our first nationwide search for the country’s biggest craft beer fan. The winner will help develop our new summer beer range and put their tasting skills to the ultimate test
Our honorary chief taster will need to prove that have the ‘beer factor’ on Instagram to be in with a chance of winning the title. In return, our winner will go behind the scenes at the home of Cold Town Beer in Edinburgh’s Grassmarket, meet our head brewer and taste test our latest prototypes before they’re released to the public.”
Manager of Cold Town House, Jamie Napier, added:
“We make our entire range of Cold Town Beer freshly in our microbrewery and you can even enjoy a range of experimental and exclusive brews right here at Cold Town House
“Since opening its doors in 2019, Cold Town House has quickly made its name as the home of Cold Town Beer, as well as one of Scotland’s most popular craft beer bars and live entertainment venues. We’re really proud to have our very own taproom and iconic roof terrace with stunning views of Edinburgh Castle.”
