Here at BrewDog, we love the hidden tracks; the unexpected discoveries. The B-Sides.
Take our 10HL pilot kit. It is the place our brewers let those imaginations fly and lay down unpredictable, creative tracks. Our brew team use it to dial in our small-scale experimental brews, each then finding its way to our bars as a draught-only special release.
However, we felt the naming convention used previously – Pilot Brew XXX – didn't fully reflected the ingenuity displayed by our brewers. To depict this a little better we now release each pilot brew as a bona fide B-Side; alongside our production-batch launches that take place at our bars, you’ll be able to discover a flip side in the form of one of our B-Side releases.

Keg at BD Soho. It pours clear ricg amber with a decent white head. The nose is rich, sweet, juicy, fat peach, nectarine, mango, pineapple, toffee and resin. The taste is rather bitter upfront, resinous, pine, boosty alcohol, tropical fruits, stewed peach, grapefruit, orange peel, passion fruit, dried mango, peppery spice, tobacco and some dankness notes in the background with is lingering bitter - dry. Medium body and moderate, prickly carbonation. Very BrewDog - punchy and bold. I like it.

9.2% On tap at BrewDog Clerkenwell. Clear gold lasting white head. Aroma pink grapefruit and boiled hop flowers. Smooth in mouth. Some alcohol hit on the finish. More pink grapefruit and almost a vanilla flavour. It’s big but not big. Amazingly light in the mouth. Very dry. Fully attenuated. Hops come through more as it goes on. Fresh peach and pink grapefruit. Some light Passionfruit. Pretty much amazing. Liked the Ace Of Simcoe more.
