Reids GoldBrewing Company

Reids Gold Brewing Company began after founder Barry Reid received a home-brew kit as a Christmas present in 2013, an interest that grew into a registered business incorporated in January 2017 and its first trade sale in April 2018. The brewery operates from Provost Barclay Drive in Stonehaven, where Reid single-handedly manages small-batch brewing, from mashing through to packaging and delivery. Beers are sold through local shops, markets and online rather than from a dedicated taproom. The operation remains a one-person business run from this single Stonehaven address, with no other premises. Its small-batch approach means limited runs of each recipe, with output shaped around what one brewer can manage alone.
