Kiwi Hammer : 7.2% Jack Hammer gets a New Zealand twist. We’ve taken our relentlessly bitter West Coast IPA and created a new version using exclusively Kiwi hops. A trio of Nelson Sauvin hops from early, mid and late harvest, supported by SubZero Kief Kohia Nelson Sauvin and Tetra.

Keg at BrewDoge Clerkenwell, 17/10/2025.
Clear golden topped with a white cap.
Nose is orange zest, melon, grass, light stone fruit whisper.
Taste comprises crisp malts, citric tinged straw, light pine flicker, grapefruit, touch of white grape.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close spiked with grassy hop bitterness.
Decent enough IPA but the NZ hops that are promised don't SHN!

Clear golden pour with a decent white head. Aromas of malt, grapes, gooseberries, some citrus. Taste is grapefruit, citrus, grapes, herbs, pines - not bad at all.

Can at the BD AGM2025. It pours clear orangey + gold with a decent white head. The aroma is vibrant, super green, weedy, dank, bong rips, herbal, piney, spring onions, green fruits, gooseberry, white grape, crunchy fruits, gooseberry fool and candied lime. The taste is firmly dry, pleasing bitterness which lingers throughout, super green, weedy, dank, bong rips, herbal, garlic, spring onions, crunchy white grape, greengage, gooseberry, pithy lime, nip of alcohol, resinous pine, clean malt base and some peppery spice through the finish. Medium body and moderate, carbonation. A lovely take on BrewDog's best semi regular beer. Full of flavour and somehow also moreish. Great.
