Although you can still go to the bar that must have been the Maclays brewery tap. It sells Sweetheart Stout from the fridge, alongside Heather Ale which at least is brewed in Alloa. This and also the remaining pubs in the town are, er, "characterful".<br /><br />Yeah, Sweetheart Stout is pretty close to Malzbier. Malzbier with a little bit of cola in it, maybe.Rob Sterowskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07870233673933087794noreply@blogger.com
