About
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.

Can @ home. Hazy orange color, medium to full sized white head that lasts for a short while. Aroma is malts, lightly fruity, decently hoppy. Taste malts, hops, again lightly fruity, a touch floral, a tad sweet with a slight hop bitter finish. Medium body and suitable decent carbonation. Decent, but not as good as I'd hoped. Also, decent beer, not my sort of IIPA tbh.
