BrewDog launches Abstrakt AB:03
Cloisters on Brougham Street can be one of Edinburgh’s busier pubs – and last night it was standing room only there, pretty good for a Wednesday night. The reason of course was that some of the guys from BrewDog were on hand to launch their latest Abstrakt vintage, Abstrakt AB:03 – so a high percentage […]
London’s shortest pub crawl?
London’s Borough Market has long been a popular attraction for food-loving locals and tourists alike, with plenty of stalls offering choice items from around the world. It can also be a worthy destination for the beer lover, with three fantastic – and very different – drinking experiences within thirty seconds of each other. Inside the […]
BrewDog’s The End of History
There’s definitely a reason why BrewDog elicit more conversation and comment than any other Scottish brewer – arguably any other British brewer.

Thoughts on Sink the Bismarck
Well, the dust seems to have settled slightly around the blogosphere following the latest announcement from Fraserburgh’s BrewDog a few days ago.
