Sounds good, some of my best trips around Scotland have been aimless wanders.
I'll probably be over again in the next couple of months before me and my Da hit Glasgow for the commonwealth games in...

Scotland is one of the few places that has kept a lot of it's old dark ales. Whereas most places just make lots of variations of an IPA.
Where abouts are you visiting this summer?

Over in Scotland for the weekend.
Sampled a few different ales but this was my favourite. I do like an 80 shilling
163897

Probably my favourite ale, or at least one that I can drink a lot of.
She advised me to try old crafty hen and I had to admit I'd never heard of it but she directed me to the Greene King website and...

A bit of flattery goes along way :)

Exchanged a few emails with a lovely lady at Greene King brewery and she was nice enough to send me this in the post free of charge.
Happy days!!
Luckily I have a few old speckled hens in the...

A new Trappist? I want to try myself then

There is something wrong with the world when someone in Belgium is looking beer sent to him.
No disrespect to the great ales of Massachusetts but Belgian ales are the best I've ever had.
Are you...

I only ever drove through it once. Beautiful wee place

Probably they do get confused easily. Like when they try to order an Irish scotch

I like me a bitter or two. Guinness make a nice one but ironically you can't get it in Ireland

Owwww St Andrews! How posh!
Haha only messing mate. Great uni, did you have to wear that daft uniform?

There may well be better beers but Asahi is the only Japanese beer we would get over here. Not a bad brew

Where abouts in Scotland were you based mate?
I first found this great beer in Scotland too. In the Caledonian sample rooms in Edinburgh

I'm gonna sit up on Sunday night and watch the Super Bowl.
My beer of choice will be the true king of beers (king of lager at least)

I'd be more inclined towards the dubbel or the porter but I'm not a big IPA fan

Just left an Innis & Gunn treacle porter out for Santa.
That's my name on the nice list guaranteed! :)

I dare say the stuff you drank as a teenager was a million miles away from what's available nowadays. Great time to be a cider drinker. In the UK at least

Have you tried Thatchers Green Goblin Jamie? I think it's new

I know that Guinness make kaliber, an alcohol free lager. The alcohol they remove is added into the stout :)

Low alcohol beer?! That's just plain weird

I thought lite beers were just low calorie but full strength, no?

I love Guinness but it can be an acquired taste for some people.
When I've tried to get my friends to drink real ale I found that the best beer to break them in was "old speckled hen". Not sure if...

That looks like a brilliant selection. I love a chocolate stout and a milk stout but never had anything that would describe itself as a chocolate milk stout, sounds interesting.
I love this time of...

Never had it mixed with lager but I know Guinness and Bass is called a Black and Tan.
Guinness brought out their take on a black lager a few years ago which was quite good, the flavour of stout...
