Hops, Whisky Casks & Hardcore

Fermented things we have put in bottles in the last 10 days. You can grab a mixed box of all three right here.

I Hardcore You

Question: What do you get if you blend Hardcore IPA and I Beat You together and then add even more dry hops?

Answer: I Hardcore You. Of course.

This is the return, for a limited time only, of a beer which proved firm favourite with hop heads in 2011. I Hardcore You is a 9.5% Imperial India Pale Ale, an international collaborative effort between 2 of Europe's most rock 'n roll brewers.

I Hardcore You is an Imperial India Pale Ale: a blend of our own Hardcore IPA and Mikkeller’s I Beat You (2 of our favourite beers). After the blending, the beer was then dry hopped a further twice. Making I Hardcore You a beer which has been dry hopped four times, or maybe even six times. We kinda lost count. Find out for yourself right here.

Chaos Theory

This single hop nelson sauvin double IPA is tasting better than ever. Fresh from our Ellon brewery where we are getting amazing extraction from our hops during the boil where we can control the temperature to within .25 of a degree. The layers of rich, tangy tropical fruit hops balanced perfectly by a mouth puckering bitter finish will put you in the mood for endless summer nights. Revel in the chaos and let this delectable IIPA blow your mind wide open. Grab it now.

Paradox Grain

This is the first time Paradox Grain has come back since it won Gold at the 2008 World Beer Cup in the Wood and Barrel-aged Strong Beer Category.

The Life and Times of a BrewDog Grain Cask- A little acorn grows into an oak tree, the oak tree is turned into a cask by a skilled human, the cask is then used to mature American Bourbon, releasing wonderful vanilla flavours from the oak.

Our brave cask then undertakes a perilous marine voyage across the Atlantic, narrowly escaping the clutches of storms, giant squid and pirates.

Arriving safely at a Scottish Grain whisky distillery it is used to mature the finest whisky, adding depth and character to the flavours infused in the oak. The cask finally arrives at BrewDog where we fill it with our Imperial Stout, this aging process instills all the vanilla and whisky flavours into our robust, smooth stout.

Characterised by wonderful oak notes complimented by smooth vanilla, rich treacle, stewed forest fruits and decadent dark chocolate, get your paws on our Paradox Grain right here.

  • So glad you've brought back the Paradox grain, it was the first paradox I tried and while I've loved some of the others especially Arran nothing has come close!
