I'll be up in time for the Thursday night beer trail which sounds ace: Here

I've published the list below from Beer Bloggers Conference site (words not mine, straight from BBC), as I'm thinking it sounds like a pretty good trail for anyone to try out:

■Bow Bar: THE Edinburgh beer bar. It’s been established for years and with Mike Smith now at the helm, its traditional interior is complimented by a truly contemporary beer list. That and the hundred plus whiskys make the Bow an essential destination.

■Cloisters: One of the coziest bars in town. The fire, wooden pews, and the beautiful spiral staircase all add to the charm. The 9 cask lines and rotating keg line with a backdrop of whiskies, rums and gin also help.

■Holyrood 9A: An all things to all people bar. Do you want breakfast? A snack? Lunch? Dinner? Generic beers? Craft beers? you can do everything here with super efficient staff making it an entirely enjoyable experience.

■BrewDog: If bespoke beers is your thing, BrewDog is built on the US model of all keg and no compromise. With a select line up of guest beers, it’s a hop lovers heaven. If you know BrewDog, this bar will provide no surprises. Branded, great staff, and a long list of foreign beers.

■The Hanging Bat: 6 cask lines and 14 keg lines almost solely dedicated to UK beers. Nothing mainstream and almost everything in the bar comes from an independently owned company. A brewkit in the back, kegs for sinks, and great hotdogs plus food from the smoker. All comments suggest the staff are the stars of the show.
