I had a very enjoyable visit here this afternoon with a group of friends. Regrettably, my beer notes have not survived.

Friendly welcoming atmosphere. Staff to be commended for offering tasters.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Harviestoun - Bitter & Twisted | 3.80 | | Light, refreshing session ale. Could do with a bolder flavour profile. |
| Greene King - Twisted Wheel | 4.00 | | GK's take on a ginger infused beer. Would be better with root ginger rather than powder. Not really to my taste. |
| Barney's - Volcano IPA | 5.00 | | This 'bandwagon' IPA could have been 2* really. No body or depth of flavour. |
| Belhaven - Caledonian Deuchars IPA | 3.80 | Not Tried | |
| Caledonian - Brewer's Passion | 4.60 | Not Tried |

Very friendly locals bar near the river. Dogs welcome, children not.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stewart - 7 | 4.50 | | Amber ale brewed to celebrate the brewery's 7th birthday. Slightly sweet aromas but crisp and slightly spicy in the mouth. Dry spicy finish. |
| Williams Brothers - September Song | 4.20 | | Bold dark lager. Pours almost jet black with good tight head. Initially roasty the flavour mellows to light autumn fruits. |
| Stewart - Pentland IPA | 4.10 | Not Tried | |
| Strathaven - Lines Out | 4.00 | Not Tried |

Busy, dog friendly place with horse racing on the TV.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Timothy Taylor - Landlord | 4.30 | | Nicely balanced biscuity malt and hops in good condition. Outselling Deuchars at least 3 to 1. |
| Belhaven - Caledonian Deuchars IPA | 3.80 | Not Tried |

Enjoyed the crack in the bar and came back later to relax on the terrace. By far the best pub on our short break in the Borders and not in the GBG!
Gents: admire the fittings in the toilets.
Wish I had a local like this.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dark Star - Hophead was 3.8% (some has also been brewed by Fuller's) | 3.40 | | What a find! A little warm and tired but, with the sparkler off, the hops still shone through. |
| Belhaven - Caledonian Deuchars IPA | 3.80 | Not Tried | |
| Orkney (Sinclair) - Nimbus Blonde (Atlas range) | 5.00 | Not Tried | |
| Inveralmond - Ossian's Ale | 4.10 | Not Tried |
