With the help of British Airways cabin crew, BrewDog founders Martin Dickie and James Watt, started the brewing process of this limited run beer on board one of the airline’s Boeing 787 Dreamliners, while cruising 500mph over the north of Scotland.
The expert brewers mixed water, hops and barley in the onboard beverage makers to start the mashing part of the brewing process.
Cans of the bespoke IPA, named Speedbird 100 after the airline’s call sign, will be exclusively available to British Airways customers on board all long-haul and short-haul flights and in selected lounges from 1 May.

Can shared by Marko, many thanks! A bit caramelly and oxidized, but nothing crazy. Mostly a clean classic feeling west coast IPA, with med-high bitterness and focus on classic citrusy, zesty, piney hops character. Good, drinkable.

On a flight: light copper with nice white head. Aroma is lemony, biscuity, some fruitiness. Taste is light, low bitterness, malty with a lemony finish. Fine.
