Vault City Brewing

Who We Are

Born in 2018 in the heart of Edinburgh, Vault City Brewing has quickly established itself as a leader in the art of modern sour beer-making. We are a boutique brewery focused on creating innovative, fruit-forward sour beers that surprise and delight customers across the UK and beyond. With a passion for quality and creativity, we continue to challenge conventional brewing practices while retaining a distinct local flavour that celebrates our Scottish roots.

Our approach combines traditional brewing expertise with bold experimentation, resulting in beers that are both approachable and adventurous. From classic sour styles to boundary-pushing fruit combinations, every Vault City beer tells a story of craftsmanship and innovation.
