A BREWER has gifted Glasgow with a new mural.
Innis & Gunn created the masterpiece just seconds from the popular West End drinking spot Ashton Lane.
Glaswegians were asked to vote for their favourite design, with ‘Tartan Paint’ coming out on top.
The chosen mural, painted on the wall in Cresswell Lane, trumped ‘Did Ye, Aye?’ and ‘Bolt, Ya Rocket’ to win first place.

The mural is the latest in a string of stunts and giveaways as the ‘Your Call Lager’ campaign gets into full swing.
The mural comes just weeks after the Innis & Gunn team pitched up on Buchanan Street for #PeopleMakeGlassGo which saw the brewer give away 2,000 of its much-admired pint glasses in less than 25 minutes.
Ciaran Glöbel of Glöbel Bros Signs and Conzo Throb, known together as ‘Conzo & Glöbel’, regularly team up to create murals together with Tartan Paint being the latest collaboration.
Robb Hamlin, senior brand manager at Innis & Gunn, said: “Glasgow is known for its thriving street art and brilliant murals so we thought, ‘why not give the city a wee gift?’.

“We put the power in the people’s hands and Glasgow has spoken. Winning mural Tartan Paint will be a welcome addition to Cresswell Lane, just a stone’s throw from our new-look Brewery Taproom.
“We worked with the amazing Conzo & Glöbel and Art Pistol to create something really special with a proper Scottish feel. We love Glasgow so teaming up with talented Glasgow artists was the perfect fit for our lager campaign, which has gone down a treat with beer fans across the city.
“Keep your eyes peeled to see what else we have in store.”
