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.

Nose is tarte berry fruits, wood must, heather, grains, damp straw, prickly pear, berry skins. Taste comprises sharp strawberries, light funk, tangy berry fruit compote, light acidic bimble.

Sour beginning with lots of nice chocolate malt. Nice combination with a bit too much sourness. The dark chocolate is in the back, fruity sourness with hints of buttering hops there. Nice dry, chocolate sourness on the tongue, dark roasted grain as well.
