Undercover Brewer: A Sneak Peek Into Our Tanks

Kegging Line: Bracken's Porter

brackens_porter_620

Devised and brewed by our bar managers this 5.1% porter is designed to be the perfect sipping dark session beer. Kerry, Martin Keith, Lucy, Neil S, Helen, Dean, Mark, Jonny, Dan and Neil T all helped brew a small 20HL batch of this beer with our brewer George in our Fraseburgh brewery.  This beer will only be available on draft and in BrewDog bars from today.

Work for BrewDog

The beer will be named Bracken's Porter as a tribute to our favourite four pawed friend who sadly passed away a few months ago. Chocolately, robust, warming, laid back and lots of fun - there are plenty of similarities between the two. Bracken we miss you and we hope you like your beer. Long live the original BrewDog.

Bottling Line: AB:13

abstrakt_ab13_620

The latest release in our Abstrakt series. Aged for over 14 months in barrels, AB:13 is an 11.3% Cherry Imperial Stout aged in ex Sherry whisky barrels. Cherry & Sherry, the recipe was devised by our production manager Nikola and is based on the classic German Schwarzlwald dessert. This is very, very special. Pretty much all of our team have been blown away by this oak aged beer as it rattled off our bottling line. This beer should be available online later this week.

#MashTag Label Shortlist

MashTag was an epic experiment in crowdsourcing, which handed the keys to the brewery over to craft beer drinkers for a week. We asked you guys to direct various all the elements of the brew and you decided to brew a 7.5% American Brown Ale  with oak chips and hazelnuts (Yum!). The beer is currently fermenting away nicely in tank. And looks like this:

The label for the beer is also crowd-sourced and was voted on by you guys on the blog last week. Well done to Rob Mackay for this winning entry.

FV 108  Black Tokyo* Horizon

A beer we originally brewed a small batch of back in 2010 is back! This collaborative beer was created when the paths of Mikkeller, Nogne-Ø, and BrewDog merged. It is an equal combination of ideas and inspiration extracted from each brewery’s respective huge stouts, Black, Dark Horizon, and Tokyo*.

This beer should be packaged in mid May.

FV 104 10 Heads High
 

tenheadshigh_620_01

Loosely based on our 2011 Prototype beer Hops Kill Nazis, 10 Heads High is a 7.7% Imperial Red Ale loaded with American Hops. Think of it as an Imperial India Red Ale or a super-charged version of 5am Saint. This beer will be packaged in early May and available in both bottles and kegs.

FV105 Punk Monk

pm_620

An old favourite that makes an appearance from time to time. This beer will be available in keg only, in all BrewDog Bars, from early May. This is Punk IPA fermented with a Belgian yeast. The recipe is exactly as per our usual recipe for our flagship beer, the only difference is that we use a Belgian yeast strain rather than our house ale yeast for fermentation.

We also have some great guest beers available on our online shop at the moment, check them out here:http://www.brewdog.com/shop/guest-beer
