This is very much a typical Brewdog bar with a real student-vibe to it, but lacking a bit of the oomph that some of their other Scottish venues seem to have. It’s the usual concrete-floored rectangular room with the bar down the right-hand side and a raised, bare boarded seating area opposite. The bar has a rather ugly, chunky wood panelled counter, a dense collection of pump clips on the bar back and large beer boards above, although notably not the cinema-style boards that seem to be in most of the chain’s outlets these days. A grim, undressed concrete pillar splits the bar counter in two and there is a drinking ledge opposite with a raised area beyond offering standard tables and chairs along with some comfy looking banquette booths. High tables and stools are arranged in the front section, under the windows, where a large Brewdog sign adorns the side wall and a couple of fridges packed with bottled beers can be found. To the rear of the room there is a retro arcade machine and a rather off-putting merchandise area for all your Brewdog t-shirt and mug needs. A decent soundtrack was playing throughout my time here and food was available from a reasonable sounding pizza menu.
There were eleven Brewdog beers available, although sadly not one of their ‘live’ beers, with six guests making up the numbers. I tried the Brewdog Kingpin at £4.45 a pint and found it to be incredibly bland and not the sort of beer I associate Brewdog with at all.
I generally find that Brewdog bars only really work if you visit in the evening when there is a decent crowd in, as they are pretty soul-destroying in the cold light of day. Such was the case with this place, where I was the only customer for much of my visit, making the place feel flat and joyless. I suspect it’s better than that, but even so, it felt like one of the chain’s weaker outlets and didn’t add much to my mini-crawl around Stirling.

The name is a quote from Robert Burns’ poem “Tam O’Shanter,” which translates as "thirsty neighbours" in standard English. The bar is wooden floored and rectangular in shape, with a TV at each end. Fake stone dykes separate the seating areas and the walls are decorated with, among other things, rowing boat oars and fishing rods. At only £2.35, my pint of Tennent’s lager was unusually cheap, especially now that happy hours are banned. Innis and Gunn’s and Stella Artois lagers, Guinness and Belhaven Best are also on draught and food is available. There are quiz nights every Tuesday, karaoke every Thursday and live bands every Friday in what is, understandably, a busy and popular pub.
