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.

Gold with a frothy, white head of modest duration. Aroma of strawberry, grapefruit, apple, and a mild funk. Taste is tart to moderate sour with both a yeasty sweet and a touch of bitterness underneath. Well balanced and with just enough nuance to keep things interesting. Medium-bodied, moderate carbonation. Modestly refreshing. Good.

Bottle. Black body under a small tan head. Nice aroma of dark malt, dry fruit, dark berries, ripe cherry, wood, acid, alcohol and a hint of acetone. Taste has a fine balance between sweet malt, dry fruit and acidity, lots of dry fruit, quite acidic, complex with chocolate, raisins, cherry, wood, mild whisky, some acetone and balanced bitterness. Well balanced body and long lasting aftertaste. Very nice indeed.

On tap at Brewdog Birmingham, pours a deep dark cherry brown with a small off-white head. Aroma is full of intense brett funk, intense wood, and subdued tart cherries. Flavour is not landing right â there's lots of Worcestershire sauce, followed sour cherries, wood, and funk. The balance and integration aren't great. Sour, acetic and harsh. Not so good.
