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.

[Cosmic Raspberry] Very fizzy pour resulting in a deep rose pink, very slightly hazy appearance, with a tiny, bubbly off-pink head and an aroma of raspberries, some stewed apples and a touch of funk. The sparkling mouthfeel delivers a zesty, tart raspberry flavour, with some sweetness as a balance, and an astringent finish

Panda at home, thanks to Fergus, 14/03/21. Black with a tan covering that soon dissipates. Nose is tarte red berries, vinous, red grape must, dark malts, cherry skins. Taste comprises tarte berries, cherries, tarte blueberries, funk, vinous, dark malt base. Medium bodied with bite, fine carbonation, light drying close with a mellow puckering kiss. Decent approachable sour ... comes in well below the hefty ABV states.
