    I'll be in Inverness, Fort Augustus, Oban, Islay, Glasgow, Stirling (visiting Harviestoun).

    Any recommended beer destinations?

    Edinburgh is the place you have to be if you really want to experience the best beery things in Scotland.

    You got it. Sometimes I have to remind myself how lucky I am to be only about a 20 minute train ride to Haymarket and Waverley Station.

    Love The Halt. But no love for The Bon Accord? Or Inn Deep? Both are worth a visit especially the former.
