Alkaline Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 I had my first Trashy Blonde, beer that is, tonight. Thought it was ok once it had settled but first couple of mouthfuls weren't that great. I have another of theirs in the fridge just now but i can't remember which one. I hope it fairs better.

Johnny Mac Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 I tried Tactical Nuclear Penguin last week.It was rough.WAY too rough for me. Took me an age to drink it....... X-(Also went up for a tour of their brewery last week, was very interesting and got several beers to taste. Also bought a nice bottle of BrewDog AB:01.... can't wait to try it.

nullmouse Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 I've a fridge full of Dogma and Chaos Theory at present. Chaos Theory is the perfect midpoint between the Punk and Hardcore IPA, and the Dogma's dead drinkable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Gold Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 I've got a box of Dogma also, yet I am back at sea today and only had time to sample the one that I gifted to my neighbour. Twas very nice though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gypsum_Fantastic Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 Bastard just got this email. Whats the 04 like? and how do you organise tours of the brewery?Hi Stephen,We have just released a batch of Chaos Theory in the last few weeks so it will be a long time before this is back on sale. There are no plans to brew it in the near future. Apologies and keep up to date with all our news on our blog.Fiona MurrayOnline Sales Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Mac Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 The 04 was cracking, can't wait till it is released! Several bottles will be purchased.Have a few bottles of 01, 02 and 03 aging nicely to drink next year too!I don't think they actually do tours as such. I met them at one of their Musa nights and they invited us to pop up as my brother was over from Oz and was interested in the whole brewing process.

Monster Zero Posted October 6, 2010 Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 The price of the stuff in shops doesn't suggest it is going to be doing much in the way of drinks promotions. Trouble is that while it may have a short term novelty value, long term folk are unlikely to sustain excessive prices. Who knows though, since it is their own establishment they will hopefully have the business sense to price realistically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gypsum_Fantastic Posted October 6, 2010 Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 i know when the mooings had 5am saint on tap it was the same as th eother guest ales, very reasonable (cheaper than tennants i think) maybe just because it was a trial, teabags might be able to clesar this up, but im hoping for a similar price in the brewdog pub.

Teabags Posted October 7, 2010 Report Share Posted October 7, 2010 All guest ales in Moorings are the same price, which I think is the same price as Tennents (2.50 on weekends/2.20 or 2.30 on weekdays, cant remember).I'd be surprised if its that price. I'd suspect more around the 3 mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monster Zero Posted October 7, 2010 Report Share Posted October 7, 2010 3 is still a price that you can't complain about for a pint of Brewdog considering you are not far off that or even in excess of it for Tennents etc in a lot of places. The cheapest Brewdog bottles in supermarkets ar the best part of 2 quid. I think it has a niche rep that allows shops to hike the prices.

Nev Posted October 7, 2010 Report Share Posted October 7, 2010 I realise I should probably know this, but are Brewdog still intending to brew beer on-site at the pub? According to this: BBC News - What does the price of a pint say about a pub?, pubs that brew their own beer are on average 20% cheaper.I suspect this won't be the case with Brewdog, though...

Johnny Mac Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 Apparently the bar is open for a few days before the official opening night!Good stuff, will have to pop in past!

Gypsum_Fantastic Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 when is opening night? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossP Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 It was open today at 4pm, unfortunately I was on my way to hampden so couldn't check it out. Official opening night is next Tuesday, but I'm going to swing past tomorrow night on the chance it's open Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidm Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 I had a pint of 77 Lager in there last night at around 11 or so. It was excellent. It is the first pint of lager I've had in at least a couple of years that actually tasted as lager should do; no fizziness, no watering-down, just a really good drink. I realise that's pretty much exactly what they say they want to achieve with it and they definitely have.Costs of pints ranged from around 3 to 3.50 and there were LOADS of different ales and what have you from around the world as guest ones. My friend asked one of the barmen about opening times and it seems as though it'll be open from 4pm-12 every night of the week and there won't be a late licence on weekends.
