I had an Email the other day that made me more excited than a grow man should be, I was invited by S.I.B.A., (Society of Independent Brewers), to be a beer judge at their Scottish events !  The first one that I am going to judge at is the bottled beer competition on the 18th of November and it will be held at "The Beehive" in Edinburgh. I am really looking forward to this event and trying my taste buds out on some great new Scottish beers. i will of course take my camera and write a report on this for the next issue of "A View From The Bar".

It's been a while since my last issue but I haven't been idle, I've reviewed some more pubs - check out the review of "Joseph Pearce", a pub on Edinburgh's Lieth Walk, or "Bread + Butter Bar Diner" an urban chic pub close to Glasgow's princess Square shopping center and also check out the review of one of Glasgow's most iconic bars "The Horse shoe", pictured below.

I started this web site about a year and a half ago as a hobby and an expression of my love for all things Scottish, beer, whisky,  great pubs, festivals, etc. It has grown a lot since then both in size and in popularity, I get on average 220 hits a day. 

I have now written a book called  "TheTartan Pint" which should be on sale on the site in about two weeks time, (as a download E book), it will also be available on Amazon for I pad and Kindle. It is a comprehensive guide to ALL the Beers and Breweries Scotland has to offer.  It has tasting notes and pictures of the pump clips for all the Beers and a brief description and history of the breweries. 

I have put a lot of time and effort into this and hope that you will download it and enjoy it.                      It'll be priced at £2.49

I look forward to the next issue of "A View From The Bar" as  there will be more surprises in store, until then, Cheers !!!
