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.

CBJ Tasting. Hazy pale gold. Thick foamy white head. Aroma is fruity with a sweet streak. Flavourwise it has bitter citrus with a chalky malty streak. Light. Thin. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. OK.

Tasting at CBJ, thanks to Cloin. A mild haze on this gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Airy palate, semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Mellow thin malts, modest fine carbonation. Mild funk, milder ripe citrus. Light thin finish. A tad bland.
