Established in Dundee, Scotland, in 2021, Holy Goat Brewing is a craft brewery with fast recognition for its creative approach to beer making. Focussing on mixed-fermentation and wood-aged beers, Holy Goat has established a distinct market in the field of craft brewing. Reflecting their commitment to investigating unusual brewing procedures, the brewery's name playfully evokes the "goat-like" traits sometimes linked with wild yeast (Brettanomyces) characteristics.

The core of Holy Goat's brewing philosophy is a proprietary technique using Brettanomyces yeast for extended maturation times usually lasting 3-4 months. This method lets them create distinctive, full-flavored sour beers with complexity. The brewery's dedication to experimenting is seen from their wide range of products, which spans sour and wild ales as well as imperial stouts and porters. Interesting flavour combinations and barrel-aging procedures abound in their beers, highlighting their inventiveness and mastery of creating unique brews.

For several of their beers, the brewery has received especially praise. Beer enthusiasts have given beers including "Goblin Cleaver," an imperial stout, "Holy Mountain," a flavoured sour/wild beer, great praise. Their "Spectral Lore" line, which features sour beers laced with fruit, has also been well received. Beer like thier "1867 Double Export Stout," which honours old brewing processes while using novel methods, clearly shows how adept Holy Goat is in balanced conventional brewing methods with modern innovation.
