The fifth Glasgow Real Ale Festival (G-RAF) of recent times, started today and runs until Saturday night at The Briggait, Saltmarket. The World Cup was on in year #1 and still people turned out, so here’s hoping.
Hector is working today and tomorrow at the Foreign Bar – Bieres sans Frontieres. Some familiar faces accompany me.
The range of Real Ales is from around the UK and Ireland. The Foreign Bier rotates, this was today’s offering:
As ever, the Briggait looks wonderful at this time of year, the late evening sunshine pouring in.
On Saturday afternoon I assume the Caledonian Pipe Band will make their customary appearance, beware.
