I am the eldest of three daughters working in the business and have been managing the shop since 2016. I love food, speaking to people and the environment. I also spend a lot of time in the kitchen at home cooking and baking with my two little boys, so this is my perfect job.

Introducing Rob’s Lager: A Tribute from Farm to Bottle

We are thrilled to announce the launch of our very first farm-to-bottle lager, aptly named Rob’s Lager, in honor of our beloved dad. Rob wasn’t a big drinker, but he cherished a cold lager after a long day of harvest, surrounded by friends and family. This lager embodies the spirit of community, camaraderie, and the hard work that goes into every season.

Crafted using barley grown right here at Ardross, Rob’s Lager is a true reflection of our land and the legacy of our father. We partnered with Crafty Maltster, one of the few local maltsters willing to work with small quantities of our own barley, to develop a unique recipe inspired by what Rob loved in a lager. Although it’s not ready yet, our brewers at St. Andrews Brewing Company are excited about the outcome, and we can’t wait to share it with you.

Rob’s Lager is available for pre-order now and will be ready for delivery from mid to late November—just in time for the festive season! This lager not only highlights our commitment to sustainability but also our dedication to producing local products in collaboration with small local businesses.

The creation of Rob’s Lager has been a community effort, with input on the name and label design coming from those around us. This makes it even more special as we launch our first-ever beer at Ardross. From seed to bottle, we invite you to raise a glass of Rob’s Lager with friends, sharing in the spirit of togetherness that it represents.

Join us in celebrating this new chapter at Ardross, and pre-order your taste of our farm today!
