Hi Tuck, The 2nd brewery is run by Rob Hill (former head brewer at Orkney Brewery). His brewery is in the old dairy at Swannay Farm and he brews some excellent beers.

It's a dark beer , rather malty, and not too hoppy. But there is also Dark Island to try and Red MacGregor, and my favorite, Raven Ale. We can get several of those here at a place called Zeke's in Dowagiac, Michigan, where they boast about 300 beers on their extensive list. But none taste as good as when sipped before a blazing sunset over the Loch of Harray. I understand there is now a second brewery in Orkney. Can anyone tells us what they know about that?
