Brewed for collabfest 2013 between Hand Drawn Monkey and Brewdog Leeds at Brewdog HQ.
A red rye saison loaded with 15kg of fresh oranges and 10kg of fresh ginger, this beer has an incredible punchy aroma of spiced oranges. Named after the canine-ised version of Hand Drawn Monkey’s mascot, Jephers the Big Red Dog has also been loaded up with additions of Saaz hops and a few handfuls of pink peppercorns, plus extra orange added during conditioning. -

Draught. Hazy red liquid with medium off-white head. Aroma of white pepper, bread, earth, flowers, bubblegum, ginger, grain, jenka and sugar. Taste is dry and light to medium bitter with notes of white pepper, spices, cinnamon, bubblegum, diacetyl and bread. Light to medium bodied with medium carbonation. A buy watery. Weird.

Draft at BrewDog Camden on 19 October. Poured a cloudy amber colour with no head. Chemically aroma with some iodine and spicy hints. Malty flavour was dominated by ginger, so much ginger! Palate has further ginger with citrus hops, but fairly watery.

Keg at Brewdog shoreditch. Hazed orange and red pour with a small white head. Candied sweet ginger in the nose with some orange. Flavour is dominated by the ginger, sweet candied ginger. Finish the ginger tivkes the back of the throat. Way out of balance. Not a fan of this one.

Tap at BrewDog Shoreditch. It pours clear amber with a minimal white head. The taste is ginger, spice, lemon and sweet orange peel. The taste is orange, ginger, earthy, grassy, peppery, wood and soap with a dry, lightly citric finish. Light-medium body and average carbonation. Alright.
