Edinburgh pop-up bar handing out free pints for Six Nations game

Edinburgh rugby fans will get a helping hand to get in the game spirit on Saturday, with free pints for passengers travelling by tram.

Scottish brewer Innis & Gunn, with the help of two former Scotland internationalists, will be at the Murrayfield Stadium tram stop. Whatever your team, the free pints are on offer for all rugby fans who spot the bar, provide proof of age, and a valid tram and match ticket.

Former Scotland International rugby prop and Northampton Saints and Sale Sharks legend, Barry Stewart, and former Scotland international and 1990 Grand Slam winner, Sean Lineen, will be on hand to pass out the pints to passengers.

For those who will be making their way to the stadium by foot, you can check out the Innis & Gunn ‘One for the Road Bar’ that will be popping up at Malone’s on Morrison Street - providing the perfect pre-match pints for the road. Innis & Gunn wants to 'unite the nations' in their shared passion for Scotland’s biggest craft lager and most loved craft brand.

Innis & Gunn’s founder, Dougal Sharp, said: “We know our customers are massive rugby fans, so we want to surprise and delight match goers with a perfectly refreshing pint as they arrive by tram to the stadium on Saturday. A good way to showcase our superb Scottish hospitality to the Welsh.

"Avoid the scrum at the stadium bars - we’ll see you on Saturday. Good luck to both teams.”
