karen k,
sigh... I've had many a lovely half of McEwans Export (do they still brew it up there? Must ask my sister!) in Deacon Brodie's, up the Royal Mile. Went to Edinburgh Uni, (1960's) and we used to 'do' the whole length of the Mile, drinking in each pub. Ensign Ewart, White Cockade, Covenanters' Tavern, Wee Windaes I seem to remember. Oh happy days... sigh...
