Traquair House Brewery

Traquair House Brewery Traquair House Brewery lies in one of the wings of Traquair House. Over 300 years old it was brought back into production in 1965.

All our ales continue to be fermented in oak tuns and are exported all over the world. Traquair House Brewery lies in the wing of the house directly underneath the Chapel. It dates back to the early 1700’s and was originally a domestic brewery serving the house and the estate. It was disused in the early 1800’s but never dismantled. It gradually filled with the family junk until it was completely

forgotten. Peter Maxwell Stuart rediscovered the brewery in the early 1960’s and began brewing again as an experiment in 1965 using all the original equipment and fermenting the ales in the original oak tuns, some of which were over 200 years old. In the 1970’s the ales gradually gained recognition as “real ales” became rediscovered by organisations such as CAMRA and Traquair was recognised a as a pioneer of micro-brewing. Production slowly increased and enquiries came from all over the world leading to our first export to the USA in the mid 1980’s.
