|---|---|---|---|
| BrewDog - Edge | 3.20 | | Another exceptional ale from the BrewDog alchemists. Pours almost black with long lasting creamy head this is a mild at 2.7%; full bodied, fruity and with a long dry finish. Totally moreish and £1.80 a pint. |
| BrewDog - Trashy Blonde | 4.10 | | Toned down and extremely drinkable Punk IPA or Chaos Theory. Bursting with Amarillo hop flavours and could stand a little chilling on a hot day. Why can so few brewers produce ales of this character? |
| Cairngorm - Black Gold | 4.40 | Not Tried | |
| Stewart - 80/- | 4.40 | Not Tried | |
| Black Wolf (formerly Traditional Scottish Ales (TSA)) - Red Mist | 1.00 | Not Tried | ABV not known. |

The pub is found in Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, AB11 5AA.
Rock and metal music bar on Trinity Quay, with friendly staff and customers. Unstinting commitment to real ale - usually five from mostly Scottish micros (often BrewDog) on. Lined glasses used. Excellent selection of keg beers on font and plenty of interesting bottles - think Rodenbach, Cantillon and the like. Real Cider too. One of the best bars in Scotland and probably Britain, The Moorings Bar is an Aberdeen 'must visit'. Renamed in 2015. In March 2020 decided to closed for the duration of the Coronavirus alerts.
We have visited this pub 141 times, seen 157 different beers and tried 91 of them.
