"One day. One brewery. Seven thousand co-creators. Two hundred brewers. The result? Electric India. Brewed on our shareholder brew-day earlier this year, this is a hoppy saison with fresh orange peel, lashings of heather honey, crushed black pepper corns and enthusiastically hopped with mountains of amarillo and nelson sauvin. "

And it's GRE—- no, you know what, it's not great. It's not bad, but not fantastic either, but it's a quite good Saison. But I can't taste any of the pepper. And it's perhaps a tad to dry when it comes to mouthfeel. All in all, I'm glad I bought it, and I will buy it again if I can, but brewdog has better beers than this.

Would I recommend it? Depends on whether or not you're a hardcore saison/IPA fan. If you are, I'd say; buy some. If not? Don't bother.

Oh yeah, the NSFW part.

Huh huh, huh huh.

WAY to big if you ask me, but she just got mad at me when I told her that.

Then you should try it, if you ever come across it that is. But don't get all hyped up. It's decent, but nothing more :)

Maybe it's sacrilege to say so round here, but I'm not a huge fan of Brewdog beers. For the most part they're nice enough but trying a bit too hard. Saying that, a while ago I had some ridiculously strong Brewdog beer for about £2 a pint in a Wetherspoon's somewhere, and that wasn't at all bad.

Brewdog try WAY too hard now, they didn't when they started, and Punk IPA is one of my "go to" beers.. But now, nah.. it's all about show and not much go sadly. They even discontinued one of the beers that "made them", the 77 Lager.

That being said, they DO make some awesome stuff from time to time, the paradox series and the "my name is" series. But both Nøgne Ø and Mikeller makes better products overall. I myself is rather partial to stuff from Dogfish Head and Flying Dog, but it's only the latter I can get where I live.

I also like a few beers from Sheperd Neame Brewery, Bishop's Finger comes to mind, and of course the very jalop/oppo named Spitfire.

You like Nun's Delight? Well, I guess someone has to. Spitfire's great stuff, though. The local supermarket had them two for a pound last summer, which was nice.

Well, it's perfectly drinkable, but the words 'nothing special' might have been invented to describe it. Maybe they have a different one for export, but over here it's basically cheap, bland, and inoffensive.

Ah.. yeah, the thing is that I love it since it's pretty much the only thing I can get that actually has some malt in it here in Norway. Compared to the stuff I can get when I go the UK it's bland.
