100% BRETTANOMYCES FERMENTED BRUT IPA DRY-HOPPED WITH ARIANA
Our OverWorks cellar reveals the best of both worlds in this Brut IPA/Bretted Saison hybrid. Instead of Champagne yeast we've fermented this beer with our house culture of Brettanomyces to balance bone dry hop highlights with our signature funk. Dry-hopping with Ariana gives massive aromas of currants, vine fruit and citrus, backed up by floral brett expressions.
This is nothing less than Brut IPA redefined. Merciful Maverick - et tu Brut IPA?

Keg at Brewdog Canary wharf. A mostly clear mid gold coloured pour with a lasting fine white head. Aroma is big sharp lemon and lime, green citrus, pithy grapefruit, pale grains. Hint of hay on the nose. Flavour is composed of low tart, lemon rind, canned pineapple brett, criap pils grains, cereal, low hay. Not as tart as I was expecting from the nose. Palate is delicate and crisp, airy carbonation, light tart finish. Really nice. Refreshing stuff.
