Well that was a fun afternoon outing! Two of my favourite things in fact, beer and running. We met at Cross Borders Brewery around 2pm and sampled some of their beers before setting off towards Stewart’s Brewery for another beer. The next leg is the longest and justifies it as a hill run by going over Caerketton from Boghall. From there we dropped down to Swanston, through Braidburn, round Blackford, and onwards to Summerhall.
Luckily timing worked out and we got a great wee tour of Barney’s. From there we crossed the Meadows to Hanging Bat, but unfortunately they’d sold out of the one beer that was brewed onsite so technically it wasn’t really a taproom… Anyway, on down the Water of Leith to Campervan Brewery trying to outrun the rain that had remarkably missed us thus far (apart from my run to the bus stop at the start). We got slightly damp but maybe that was a blessing for the other patrons as it may have washed off a little sweat.
More beers, and pizza from East Pizzas followed.
