Overtone Brewing Co
Glasgow's most exciting modern brewery. Overtone focuses on two things: assertive American-style IPAs and barrel-aged stouts. Both are done extremely well. Their West Coast IPA is bracingly bitter and resinous — a proper throwback to the pre-hazy era. The barrel-aged stouts, matured in bourbon and whisky casks, are among the best dark beers produced in Scotland. The Glasgow tap room is small but stocks the full range plus one-off specials that don't make it to retail. Overtone was placed into compulsory liquidation on 13 February 2026 after a court wind-up order, and was subsequently bought out of liquidation by Inn House Brewery Company, a long-standing Glasgow homebrew-supplies firm, which is continuing the brand under new ownership. Day-to-day operational details (taproom hours, current core range) under the new owner are not independently confirmed as of 2026-07-23.
