Great news for bootleg distilleries though. They'll be minting it soon, and probably causing even more health problems with methanol tainted booze. God, don't these politicians ever learn?

I think the Scottish Government just sit about all day getting bluttered on cheap wine whilst coming up with stupid ideas.

All the major hassle in Glasgow is caused by teenagers who really only drink at the weekend and could probably handle the hike. The folk drinking themselves to death are all earners who can also handle the hike. It's a pointless law.

So send off for your Distiller's Licence and make your own (for domestic use, of course). If you shell out for a modern £80 - £150 still you'll be fine anyway.
