I was in the old International Bar the other day. Seamus's. Same guy that has O'Connors on Broughton Road and Dropkick Murphys in the Cowgate.
They have done a decent job tarting it up. Going for the student crowd a bit with a couple of beers at £3.95 with student ID; one was Tennents, can't remember the other.
They had Beamish on draught which was a nice treat. You hardly see it anywhere now but I much prefer it to Guinness and Murphys. Around £7 a pint I think but don't mind it for something you can't get anywhere else in Edinburgh (and rarely seen outside of Cork nowadays).
