Description
Whiplash began as a side project for Alan & Alex back in 2016. Both working in brewing already, they rented tanks at the weekend and released single batch small releases for fun from their own place of work and other friend’s breweries around Ireland. Professional beer dudes who were gypsying for fun. Things escalated and by the end of 2017 Whiplash was its very own pain in the neck with the guys going full time, brewing Whiplash beer all over Ireland and Europe. 2019 saw the two complete their microbrewery build and establish Ballyfermot, Dublin as Whiplash headquarters complete with their own custom designed brewhouse delivering small batches of big beers. Now with a home, a kit and a small crew: Whiplash are very much the Dublin brewery at the forefront of all that’s modern in Irish beer.

(Draft at Biererei, Berlin, 15 July 2025) Black colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, roasted nose with coffee, dark chocolate, raisins and dark bread. Malty, roasted taste with notes of dark chocolate, coffee, dark bread and a mild roasty bitterness. Medium body, quite dry. Well balanced porter. Nice one.

Two 330ml glasses, draught at Cafe Sånn. Deep black body, covering beige head, scattered lacing. Nicely roasted dark malty aromas. Dark malt-forward taste with black chocolate, hints of dark bread, and a note of liquorice. Rounded, slightly roasted malty tail. Drinks very well. In friendly company with Haakon.

From the recent Whiplash TTO - bright vibrant fruity notes of pineapple, melon, pomelo and tangerine citrusy action coming in, really nice and juicy, substantial soft sweet creamy malty mouthfeel and body, assertive balanced bitter hoppy into the close. Top drawer.

From the recent Whiplash TTO - antipodean hoppy forward bringing layers of honeydew melon, apricot, lychee, white grape, tingling hop spice bite, nice pillowy soft mouthfeel, sweet malty backing, solid hoppy into the finish. Great stuff.
