Watsonian Football Club has marked the passing of Scotland rugby ace Scott Hastings by introducing a new beer to honour his contribution to the club. Hastings 13 Lager is added to the range of beers at the Myreside pavilion in partnership with longstanding sponsor Harviestoun Brewery.<\/p>\n
Scott Hastings died earlier this year having served Watsonian FC, Scotland and the British & Irish Lions with distinction.<\/p>\n
Harviestoun launched Hastings 13 lager at a recent celebration of Scott\u2019s life, in collaboration with pavilion operator Heart of Midlothian, and now the brewery and club have introduced the lager at Myreside as part of a sponsorship deal to support Watsonian FC\u2019s growth.<\/p>\n
John McLellan, president of Watsonian Football Club, said: \u201cScott Hastings represented the very best of what it means to be a Watsonian and as a hugely influential character who was the life and soul of any party I\u2019m sure he would have loved the idea of raising a glass of his own beer to the club\u2019s future.<\/p>\n
\u201cHarviestoun is one of our longest-serving and most important sponsors, and the club is privileged to work with them to embed the brewery into Myreside history. <\/p>\n
\u201cHaving the Hastings 13 tap permanently on the bar gives our members, players, and supporters a meaningful way to celebrate Scott\u2019s memory and spirit every single matchday.\u201d<\/p>\n
His brother, former Watsonians, Scotland and Lions captain Gavin Hastings said: \u201cOur family\u2019s connection to Myreside runs incredibly deep and as a tireless champion of the club both on and off the field, I\u2019m sure he would be very proud that our name will continue to be associated with celebration at Myreside, but also the future welfare of the club.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen Harviestoun stepped up to work with Heart of Midlothian and created the Hastings 13 lager for Scott\u2019s celebration of life, it meant a great deal to our family. Bringing this tribute permanently into the clubhouse alongside Harviestoun\u2019s wider support is a wonderful way to connect our family, the club, and Scott\u2019s legacy.\u201d<\/p>\n
Andrew McKnight of Harviestoun Brewery, commented: \u201cIt\u2019s a real privilege to continue partnering with Watsonian FC and work alongside the Hastings family. Crafting the Hastings 13 beer to commemorate Scott was a deeply meaningful project for our team.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are proud to recognise the club\u2019s past, whilst supporting the club\u2019s future across both the men\u2019s and women\u2019s games, while honouring one of Scottish rugby\u2019s true greats.\u201d<\/p>\n
