Bienvenue, Wilkommen, Bienvenido
Whatever language you speak, a real Scottish 'welcome' means a visit to one of the country's 5,200 pubs. And, it's fair to say, if you haven't already been to a Scottish pub - or sampled one of Scotland's famous beers - you haven't really experienced Scotland.

With at least one pub for every thousand people in Scotland - from small independents in the Highlands to style bars in major cities like Glasgow and Edinburgh - Scotland's pubs and bars are central to the country's culture.

Of course, custom from over 2 million 'loyal' consumers isn't a benefit Scotland's pub trade is about to take for granted. And every year sees new multi-million pound investments improving the Scottish pub scene.
