Allanwater Brewhouse

Brewery in Bridge of Allan

The Allanwater Brewhouse is located in Bridge of Allan, around 30 miles from us here at Loch Lomond Waterfront. This working microbrewery was founded in 1996. It has its own bar and two beer gardens, serving a selection of beers, ciders and other drinks. It regularly hosts live music events, beer festivals and pub quizzes. And also offers brewery tours, where you can learn more about the brewing process and sample some of their produce.

Bar and Beer Gardens

The bar has a warm and welcoming atmosphere. This is a great place to come with friends, where you can enjoy a beer, cider or soft drink. There’s a cosy wood burner and interesting beer-related collections on the walls. With plenty of live events and festivals scheduled throughout the year. There are also two outdoor beer gardens.

Brewery Tours

There are three different levels of brewery tours available: Bronze, Silver and Gold, suiting different levels of interest. During the tour, you’ll discover how Allanwater Brewhouse makes its extensive range of beers and ciders, with the opportunity to sample some of them for yourself. The tours are very relaxed and informal. No two tours are the same, as they are tailored to each group.

Beer and Cider selection

The brewery produces an extensive range of beers and ciders, from traditional to more experimental flavours. View the range.

There are always at least eight beers and two ciders available in the bar. There’s also a shop on site, selling a range of brewery products, including bottled beer to take home, glasses and merchandise.

Testimonials

  • Everything was more than perfect

    'Everything was more than perfect, more than what we can ask for. And the view priceless, the whole stay was priceless, so thank you ever so much, hope to see you soon.'
  • Wish we had longer

    'The ducks were very amusing, each day they waddled around the lodges looking for food, we bought some duck food for them in the local village shop. We just wished we were here for longer and hope to return in the future.'
  • We'll definitely be back again

    'I just wanted to thank you for such a lovely stay.  The lodge was beautiful and the facilities and views amazing.  We will definitely be back again.'
  • Our own private beach

    'Just walking along the West Highland way path past some of the crowded beaches made us realise the value of having your own private waterfront onto the loch.  I can still picture walking down to the lochside on our first evening and watching an osprey dive for a fish!'
  • A magical getaway

    'It is not at all a surprise that you are fully booked.  If there is one place in the world we would like to be this summer, that place is Loch Lomond Waterfront Lodges, and I’m sure the only people who don’t share this passion are those, who simply have never been there. What a magical getaway and a retreat you have created! Thank you for that.'
