Cullach Brewing was established in 2019 in Perth, Scotland, beginning production from an industrial unit on the outskirts of the city. The independent brewery was founded with an ambition to produce a diverse range of craft beers while maintaining a strong connection to its local surroundings. From the outset, Cullach placed importance on the ingredients used in its brewing, particularly barley grown and malted locally. This commitment to regional sourcing reflects the brewery's Scottish identity and its interest in supporting the agricultural and malting businesses involved in beer production. Its approach to brewing embraces a broad selection of styles rather than concentrating exclusively on one category, allowing the brewery to appeal to drinkers with different tastes and preferences.
Following its establishment, Cullach developed its brewing operation and eventually relocated from its original industrial premises to a retail unit on Princes Street, closer to Perth city centre. The move provided an opportunity to create a dedicated taproom where customers could enjoy the brewery's beers directly, strengthening the connection between production and the local community. The new premises allowed Cullach to develop a hospitality offering alongside its brewing activities, creating a comfortable and accessible setting for visitors. Its central location also helped establish the brewery as a destination for residents and visitors interested in independently produced Scottish beer. The taproom has become an important part of the business, combining beer, food and social gatherings within a single venue.
Cullach Brewing produces a varied selection of craft beers using barley sourced from local growers and maltsters. Its range includes draught beers, with some produced as real ale and served from KeyKeg, alongside beers packaged in cans. The brewery's emphasis on locally grown and malted barley reflects its commitment to ingredient provenance and the role of Scottish agriculture in brewing. Alongside beer, the Princes Street taproom offers a selection of Scottish spirits, broadening its appeal while retaining a focus on locally connected drinks. Food is another important part of the venue, with hand-stretched sourdough pizzas prepared to order using carefully selected ingredients. Wherever practical, the kitchen works with other local businesses, extending Cullach's commitment to regional sourcing beyond the brewery itself.
Today, Cullach Brewing combines independent beer production with a welcoming, dog-friendly taproom in the centre of Perth. The venue provides a relaxed environment for enjoying freshly poured craft beer, Scottish spirits and freshly prepared sourdough pizzas, while also serving as a gathering place for the local community. Events form an important part of its identity, with the brewery hosting pop-up kitchens, beer festivals, meet-the-brewer sessions and other occasions that bring customers together. Cullach describes its venue as Perth's only independent taproom, reflecting the distinctive role it seeks to play in the city's hospitality scene. From its beginnings in an industrial unit to its current Princes Street premises, the brewery has developed into a local destination that brings together Scottish brewing, regional ingredients, food and community.
