People who know me know I just love a good craft ale place, and this is no exception. Sat not far from Princes Street, and what I assume is a busy location for passing trade, is this gem of a place. I'm not one for ambiguity, but the name is a clear and defiant flag that you're coming here for beer, and that's what you're blooming well gonna get! Out with a few friends from work who were eager to show me a few of the excellent watering holes in Edinburgh, and this was second on the list. As you walk through the door, you immediately feel the busyness of the outside world shut out. The place is calmly lit, with enough music to cover the trumps and burps of other patrons, but not enough to make conversation a challenge. The bar is up ahead to the right, with tables of various types and heights, and a seating area to the right. I didn't explore to find further seating. A very welcoming and helpful chap behind the bar, very knowledgeable in his wares, was on hand to give any support required. 20 kegs were ready for my deliberation, and in my usual split pint approach to places like this, I chose three thirds to maximise my enjoyment (I avoided the 12.5% imperial stout which would be my normal go to choice as I needed to stay vertical for more pubs, but I took note in the hope I could pop back later in the week!) To the side of the bar is a fridge which stocked a number of enticing cans, but I begrudgingly accepted that loading up like a pack horse at this stage was not conducive to a fun afternoon for me. Posters on the wall made it blatantly clear that this was an establishment that want to create a community of regulars, and if I was living within a reasonable distance I would be wanting to be part of that community. Seating was the sort of interesting oddballs and mismatches that one expects of this sort of establishment, but comfort was freely available and none of us had to endure a wooden bench. 'Winchester suitability' had me chewing over this location, though. The building itself should be very easily defended in a zombie apocalypse, given the table to window ratio, but given the potentially vast numbers of potential zombies in the vicinity, it could end up being a challenge to get out on supply runs...

We just came in for some beer, and it was worth the trip. There is a huge selection and a wide variety. They don't do beer flights but do 1/3 pint pours so I had six different short pours. The beers range from good to great, six for six. The bartenders were great too.

So 3 of us went. There were two bartenders. The one served myself and aunt a drink that was HALF full. My aunt also got a classic Cocktail which was supposed to be discounted today. My mother got a classic cocktail from the other bartender and got the discounted price and got the full cocktail glass filled.. A good bartender if they made a drink accidentally half full, they would’ve fixed it not just served it to the person like it was correct. They also would’ve made sure that a paying customer got the price for the day. We were going to drink several drinks there, but we only got those got up and laughed and now leaving a bad review because of that.

Great atmosphere and place to go on a Friday night. Not much space. Some unique beers though. When I was there they were running a grape flavored sour! They had some other interesting things as well that I can't recall. But the servers were friendly and can help you narrow down the options because they do have a decent selection! I can't speak to the food.

Like half a dozen gluten free beers made in their own brewery. I've only tried one thus far, given my short stay in the city that, regrettably, may be all I get. The Rhubarb Fruity Pale is its own thing in the GF beer world; I've had gluten free beers on four continents and never found anything quite like it. If airlines allowed liquids this size in your carry on, I'd don all my clothes and fill my backpack with several cans of this brewery's beers. So at the very least, you should stop in and fill your bladder with one.

Scottish craft beer bar on the popular Rose Street. Fierce have a wide range of their own craft beers, as well as guests at a reasonable price for too quality beers. They do a £6.50 classic cocktail list on a Sunday and also offer 20% on takeaway beers. Nice little beer terrace area perfect for picking up the afternoon sun. One of the better bars on Rose Street

The final bar from the weekend, and it didn't disappoint. Managed to get a couple of high ABV beers on tap to enjoy. Good selection of own and guest beers available too. They offer a 20% discount on takeaway bottles/cans so think that'll form part of my next visit. One thing I like in particular is they're connected to untapped so you can see yourself on screen!

Ordered a #3 Hazy IPA that was delicious, Female bartender served me promptly and recommended me this. Later, I then ordered a #15 Double Hazy IPA, the male bartender was rude and poured me about 250cc of beer and 250cc foam, I then went back respectfully to ask to top it off, and he refused... stating he poured me the "correct amount." I had the drink right in front of him and he said "just wait for the foam to dispense.." ridiculous I got scammed by this guy.. won't return...

Excellent beer.. the rhubarb beer was particularly good if you like your beer sour and sipping. Top-tip: their good whiskies are good value (which is not to say they should put their prices up... you pay the "by the nip" "pub premium" and then the whisky is pretty much cost price. I would usually dodge whisky at the pub 'cos I have some good stuff at home...) but If seen the whisky they sell for £12 sell for 5X that in Glasgow.
