Don't base your night around DRAM!, it's a terrible place. Used to be called Uisge Beatha and it was a good whisky pub then, in a way, but it became a Maclay's Inns pub, then LT, and it's utterly characterless now.
As others have said, you want the Pot Still and the Ben Nevis. Bon Accord is good too, and reasonably near the Ben Nevis.
