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.

Keg at Salt horse. Pours murky golden orange with a thin white head. Aromas are near cheesy hops, rotten orange, resin. Taste is light bitter, more funky orange going on. It's growing on me.

Can from The Beerhive. Murky golden/amber body with a thin white head. Low carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of orange and mango. Flavour of grass, hop spice and juicy orange. Medium body with an oily texture. Soft fizz. Looks just ok but tastes very good indeed.

Can. Citra hops (presumably). Hazy orange - gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light, fairly dry and has a good fine crispness. Thin malts bring a mild creamy sweetness. Fresh orange hops with bright fresh orange peel. A nicely contrasting savoury bitterness. Mild tangerine before a light dry crisp finish that brings mild hop skunk and spice and leaves a bitter linger. Very crisp and clean and very satisfying.
