Can’t remember if they had it that far up, but try to find a ‘Innes and Gunn’ (spelling)! Tasty craft lager from Edinburgh.

No problem mentioning, just call them NewCo, Huns or Sevco and say you don't like them and you're going to get along just fine

Pubs in Aberdeen recommended by the Police are all in the Castlegate area - The Archibald Simpson (Wetherspoons), The Wig, Old Blackfriars, Castle Bar, Portals and Saltoun Arms on Frederick Street. It's a 20 minute walk from this area to the ground via Park Street and Park Road. There are also plenty of cafes and restaurants along the beach front. Enjoy.

Sorry had to register and post. Those pubs although sell beer and probably recommend as match approaches apart from Blackfriers I would not be rushing there normally. For arrivals today.
Ma camerons, Casc, brewdogs, belmont street area, illicit still, prince of wales, all down that end of town. Carlton at castlegate would also be in above list but has some outside seating at least. Personally as weather not too bad I would probably end up sitting outside somewhere like, siberia or downstairs in revolution.
Hope you lot enjoy your stay "up north". Excluding the football obvoiusly.

Recon you would. There's always one idiot as they say but think most would be happy to see you going about and happy to have a beer.

Wear your colours with pride mate.
Buy the locals a pint and you'll find a very warm welcome awaits

Think he was I the brew dog earlier. Taking loads of photos for Facebook. Everyone is very friendly and just want to talk football. Made to feel very welcome so far.

It’s a very long time ago, but when I was a student up there in the 1980s, by far the best (real) ale house in town was the Prince of Wales.
