Boston’s only Scottish bar has a vibe so warm, you can practically smell the burning peat. There’s a choice selection of craft beers from kilt country, ranging from light IPAs to “wee heavy” brews, and strong cocktails, like the honey bourbon-based Braveheart. But it’s the neighborhood feel that really can’t be beat during weekend brunch, quiz nights and soccer—sorry, football—viewing parties.
