Here in Edinburgh, our pubs are stocked with an enormous variety of Scottish beers – whether they’re brewed in Orkney, the Western Isles, or right here in Auld Reekie.
To mark International Beer Day, we asked readers on the Edinburgh Evening News Facebook page to name the best Scottish beer of them all. From refreshing lagers to full-bodied ales, here are their recommendations. Sláinte!

9. Rauch N' Roll
Rauch N' Roll is a "fantastic porter" our readers say. Made by WooHa Brewing Company - who are based in Kinloss - it is pale with flavours of rauch (smoked malt), chocolate and amber. Photo: WooHa Brewing Company Facebook

12. St Mungo
St Mungo is named after the Patron Saint of Glasgow who was, as the story goes, a keen brewer. It's a Bavarian-style Helles lager which was the first beer brewed by WEST Brewery in the heart of Glasgow. Photo: WEST Beer Facebook
