Deuchars IPA

Deuchars IPA is a fabulous beer. A brilliant blend of malt and hopcharacter and above all a drink with enormous drinkability.
Roger Protz, Editor of the Good Beer Guide.
A quick cheeky lunchtime pint last Friday at "Ye Olde Mitre" resulted in a pint of Deuchars IPA (4.4% abv) a Scottish IPA which is rather tasty. Again not a proper super bitter, over hopped IPA, but a good hoppy bitter; the IPA is definetely a good compromise which suits the cheeky lunchtime pint, or can form the backbone of a much larger session. The most remarkable thing about this beer is the pub I was drinking in. A real olde worlde gem the pub dates back to 1546 and serves a selection of good real ales, some cheap and nasty lagers and Guinness, plus a tasty selection of traditional bar snacks. This is definetely a pub to check out: http://fancyapint.com/pubs/pub92.html
