][1]Fancy going to an Innis & Gunn beer tasting dinner? Of course you do.
Your blogger has been to a couple of Innis & Gunn dinners. They were a blast.
Not only are the brewer’s dinners tremendous fun and generally attended by interesting, attractive people with a passion for food and drink but they can also be an eye-opener when it comes to matching different dishes with beer.
Win dinner
We have a pair of tickets, normally priced at £45 per ticket, to give away to Innis & Gunn’s next event which takes place at the rather fine Restaurant at The Bonham in Edinburgh on Wednesday 15th May from 7pm.
All you have to do is ponder the question below and send your answer to marketing@5pm.co.uk by 5pm on Thursday the 9th of May.
We will pick the winning entry from a digital hat and inform the lucky entrant. Their name will be added to the guest list and a great time will be had by all.
Usual T&Cs apply; our decision is final and no cash alternatives will be offered. Tickets can also be bought from here.
The question
The headquarters of Innis & Gunn are in which Scottish city?
