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.

Definitely sour first, but also pretty sweet. Lots of the barrel flavours coming through, giving red fruits and sweetness. Not sure where the almonds went, vanilla is really light and may just be oak, raisins.. if you say so! Tasty, though.

Flaska på Brewdog, Malmö. Disig gyllengul vätska med medelhögt skum. Frisk och syrlig doft. Mycket citrus, pigg laactosyra, lätt sälta och kanske lite kvitten. Trevlig
