17:30 Fairly busy. The brewer was sitting drinking at the bar so we were able to glean a lot of information about the beers.

We came here immediately after watching Olympic football at Hampden Park – unfortunately, so it seemed, did most of the other near 40,000 from the stadium. It was actually 40 minutes until I was away from the bar, juggling six pints. Probably the longest I have ever waited to be served anywhere – but with one of my friends walking with a stick and a collective lack of knowledge of alternative venues in the area, we decided to persevere. The pub remained very busy indeed throughout our stay.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Clockwork - Oregon IPA5.50GoodAmber in colour. A balanced pint of solid malt and US hops.
Clockwork - Red Alt Beer4.40AcceptableVery red, in both colour and flavour. More red than alt in fact I would suggest. Sweet, caramel malt tastes, a bit of Cascade hop character.
Clockwork - Maclay's Wallace IPA4.50PoorVery sweet and a bit too tangy.

Here for lunch. Which was haggis and very good it was too. Tried all of the beers. Very good selection of European bottled beers as well.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Elgood's - Mad Dog4.40GoodSlightly cloudy copper colour. Very decent bitter, fine, some nice citrus. Bit of caramel, decent hop. NIce.
Clockwork - Kitchen Sink Ale4.20GoodAttractive red/amber colour with thin beige head. Sweaty sox hop. Really quite attractive beer. Slightly sweet malt. Good beer, best of the Clockwork beers that I had.
Bank Top - Bikes Trikes and Beer3.60AcceptablePale gold, lasting white head. It’s a soft and gold and citrusy beer, little bit of stale malt. I think it’s pretty drinkable, decent tingly finish. Fine.
Clockwork - Ginger5.00AcceptableHaze green/gold colour with no head. Really gingery, a bit harsh, very spicy ginger on finish. Wow, that wakes you up. Pretty harsh, bit minty on finish. Fine.
Clockwork - Red Alt Beer4.40AcceptableAmber beer aroma. Some buttery caramel, some spicy hop on end. Some choc. OK.
Clockwork - Original Lager4.80PoorPale gold, thin white head. Fairly dull aroma, some lemon, malts are thin. The lemon fruit is a little like washing up liquid. Not great.
Clockwork - Amber IPA3.80PoorGold, lasting white head. It’s a fairly standard bitter, some bleach which pulls the score down. Not fantastic.
Clockwork - Gosch4.80PoorA Glaswegian Kolsch. Pale gold, thin lasting white head. Stale aroam, cardboard, terrible and not good drinking.
