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.

440 ml can, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 11.1%. Malts are Pilsner, Vienna and Aromatic. Hop is Magnum, spiced with Grains of Paradise. Dark brown to black colour, moderate to small beige head. Aroma of moderate Aromatic malts, caramel and Grains of Paradise. Pleasant flavour of malts with hints of chocolate, and fairly distinct Grains of Paradise (leaving a discrete warmth), moderate bittering hops. More British than Belgian, but a nice and enjoyable beer anyhow.
