Brewdog Dead Pony Club

Brewdog Dead Pony ClubWhy cant I get this in a shop nearer to me?


Brewdog's 'Dead Pony Club' a 3.8% American Pale Ale, which absolutely kicks even though its deceased, expired, bereft of life, ceased to be.

Beautifully light pine and grapefruit hops aroma, a light breeze floating in, sucks you in.

Light in the mouth, but sings around it, well carbonated, there's a slight herbal edge but fruit and pine crash in, alongside mango and some spice. With the Simcoe and Citra hops you get the bitterness it needs, but really this is a great beer considering the abv.
Certainly one of their best 'regular' beers, just wished I could get it more easily.

  1. It's an odd one; it's not what you expect from BrewDog, in the sense that it is more 'regular' as you say. It pairs better with food, and it's a must-have option in a BrewDog bar (I went to the Camden BrewDog after a few beers and was not in the mood for their latest experimental head-splitters) but when, if, I see it around elsewhere I tend to pick 5am Saint over it.

    Sometimes their website may stock, worth a look, and the Rummer Tavern stock an increasing range of BrewDog beers behind the bar.
