Notes to the editor: 

Moonwake is a modern Scottish brewery, established in 2021 by a team with extensive craft beer and brewing careers. We believe there is a beer out there for everyone.

Moonwake means: “the moon’s reflection on a body of water” speaks to the brewery’s Leith Shore location, the importance of water as an ingredient, and our beers’ reflection of our combined experience.
