Guest Ale:
Our guest ale for the forseeable future will be Farne Island from the Hadrian and Borders brewery in Newcastle.

Direct from cask!
As our cellar is a long way from the bar, the ale travels through the chilled dispense system and becomes excessively cold. Because of this we've taken to dispensing directly from the cask. This gives a much better looking pint at a more acceptable temperature.

Promotions:
Smirnoff Black Ice £1.80 while stocks last (normally £2.20)

Continental beers

We're going to change the range of continental beers. We currently have 5 beers from the Andechs brewery in Munich, but I have to drive to Glasgow Airport to pick them up.

Currently remaining:
Andechs Weisse (about 20)
Andechs Dunkel Weisse (about 15)
Andechs Hell (about 20)
Andechs Spezial Hell (only 2 left)
Andechs Bergbock Hell (about 15)

Continental beers currently stocked
Poland:
Zywiec

Continental beers planned once the Andechs runs out:
Pilsener Urquell
Budvar
Leffe Blonde
Erdinger Weisse
