Dude... how awesome would it be if we could get Dan Castellaneta to read that article in his Groundskeeper Willie voice?
Its a very strong, fortified 'tonic' wine, really nothing like wine. A cross between cough syrup and alcohol. It has developed a cult following in the west of Scotland and ever ned, bam and arsehole drinks it.......from the bottle. The combination of the fortified wine and the mentality of the type of people who drink it, lead to social issues - fights, domestic violence, etc.
To be honest, thats probably inaccurate. A bum would love to drink it, but its a good 3 times more expensive than a bottle of cider. Its more a drink of the socially excluded than the homeless to be honest.

The horrible thing is, I have family in Glasgow (my mother's mother is a native), but if I ever visited there, I'm afraid I'd spend the whole time going "What?!"
That's because you're a damn drunk. I checked out Ancalagon's bum wine site, and can say I hadn't heard of most of those, though I was once quite familiar with Night Train, and to a lesser extent Mad Dog. I wasn't too picky about how I got drunk in my early college years.
