tfredvik (630) - Oslo, NORWAY - FEB 26, 2011
UPDATED: FEB 27, 2011 Brown, clear. A huge off-white fully lasting head. Aroma of fruits, flowers, pine and soap. A light bitter taste, with some sweetness. Is there a hint of caramel flavour? Lively carbonation. Good dog! [33 cl bottle, Ultra, Bryn, Oslo]

Beersiveknown (1621) - NORTHERN IRELAND - AUG 22, 2012
Bottle@home from Brewdog online. Pours deep amber-brown with fluffy cream head and sweet caramel, peaches and malt on the nose. Quite sweet up front there’s a pleasing hint of red apple and some bitterness followed by a snap of malt and a long drying bitter finish. Medium carbonation this makes a decent enough session beer.

Alexus (239) - Stavanger, NORWAY - MAR 14, 2012
330 ml bottle. Amber/red in color, small off white head. Sweet aromas of malts and citrusy hops. Flavors of american hops and malts. A great substitute for a lager in the Norwegian grocery store beer market. Very refreshing, wanting for more..

rjkreid (190) - SCOTLAND - SEP 13, 2012
Biscuit malt with hints to dark fruit mixed with sour apple and spice and a smokey note which is interesting. Quite a sweet brew which has hints of having hung about in the bottle to long. Reminds me of sweeter, less hoppy version of 5am Saint.

Bathory (360) - Bryne, NORWAY - APR 19, 2012
Fruity smell. I tiny bit of roasty taste, with aroma of peach, citrus, plum and raisin. Red/brown colour with e little white head. Sticky feeling with an average carbonation. Long bitter finish. Overall, a good beer. Finishing of with a great quote from the label: "At BrewDog we are on a misson to open as many people’s eyes as possible; the beer scene is sick, and we are the fucking doctor" Gotta love it!

maeib (7542) - Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, ENGLAND - AUG 24, 2010
Cask conditioned handpump Market Porter Borough Market. An amber coloured beer with a ruby hue and a whitish tightish head. A malty bready aroma with fruitiness. Berry flavours. Malty hoppy aroma with a decent body. Tasty but quite safe by any accounts.

larsga (5325) - Oslo, NORWAY - MAY 5, 2010
Big shiny brown lasting head. Dark red body with lots of carbonation. Dusty roasty grainy aroma, strong and clear, with strawy toffee notes. Dry-sweetish grainy dusty roasty chocolatey taste with excellent harmony and strawberry notes. Mid-bodied. Astringent mouthfeel. Bitter resiny dusty strawy aftertaste with wooden notes lingers for a long time. Leaves lingering butterscotch flavour. Excellent. Amazing flavour for the low strength. (0.33l bottle, some Rema 1000.)
