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.

Clear deep amber colour with a lasting thin white head. Some lager yeast and lager malt aroma, not very bready as i would have expected. Don't know what to make of this. almost a little sour is it?? No just a little nothing in terms of the malts, a bit bitter on the finish. Now there is better lager in the UK this is not quite up to the standard.
