Description
Last beer was released in July 2021 and common consensus is that this is the year the brewery should be set as closed.
Do note that due to the nature of the beers produced both BrewDog and other online retailers continued to sell the beers for many years after the closure.
Dedicated to exploring and pushing the boundaries of what is possible with fermentation, we are on a quest to redefine Wild and Sour beers, forever. With a purpose-built facility where craft and nature find harmony, we utilise wild yeasts and microbes from our environment and ingredients sourced from all around the world.

Intensely, mouth-puckeringly tart. Really refreshing, tons from the gooseberry and a nice hit from the barolo barrels

On keg at Brewdog Lothian Rd, Edinburgh. Appearance - cloudy yellow. Thin head. Nose - tangy apple and pear. Dry yeasty undertones. Taste - more of the pear and in fact, just about about enough richness to call it quince. Palate - creamy and tangy in body and texture. Nice, tart finish. Overall - good.

Keg at OverWorks. It pours hazy orange with a tiny white head. The aroma is sweet, tangy, juicy, passion fruit, mango, peach and tropical vibes. The taste is crisp, dry, tart, bright, zingy, sour passion fruit applenty, sherbet, bit of sour candy, touch of peach & mango and a kick of acidity on the back end. Medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. Maybe a touch too sharp/acidic, but enjoyable. Nonetheless.
