We stopped in after seeing the pubs featured on the show, but of course! Though the beers were fantastic we were disappointed on the food selection. It would seem that the show depicted the pubs as serving actual food vs. cheese and meat platters. What’s worse was that we seemed to have arrived after a rough night and the pub was out of several key beverages. We opted to just have a drink(of water) and venture off somewhere else for dinner.

The Cocoa Psycho is a crazy strong Imperial Stout. 10%! Though I guess these folks are way into strong ABV brews. Met a few of them at the Copenhagen Beer Celebration and had a long chat about what they were doing. Next time Im getting the crazy Squirrel Cozy beer that will knock me on my ass. Next stop Brew Dog Roppongi!

4 stars for the great beer, an additional star for the squirrel coozie. They have a good selection of their own beers plus a rotating guest draft list. Plenty of bottled variety as well. Wish they sold the squirrel coozies.

Sooo many reasons I like this place! 1. I wanted a COLD beer after walking my feet off for 3 hrs. Wandered in here and got it. 2. The beer. I sampled 3 drafts at first, all delicious, and ended up going with the Punk IPA. Why is this news? I *never* like IPAs. Never. This one is DELICIOUS. 3. The bar tenders. Love these guys all tatted out, crazy beards, but crazy about beer! They would get along great with the Dogfish Head brewers :-) I drink almost exclusively craft beer in the States. I love what people are doing with beers, enhancing flavors, combining unique flavors. Brew Dog does that. Definitely will be back. Oh, and the place itself is really pleasant as well. Nice big windows, seating to meet new people.

Great beer and Great guys, BrewDog’s home bar and their Flagship. They get some sample brews you won’t get to try anywhere else. They keep a great selection of house beers from the core range and occasional brews. They always have a great choice of guest beers from all over the world and they can really make you mouth water. The staff and the regulars are all awesome and really know their stuff. You can also benefit from getting most of the brewery team visiting and drinking on an evening. This can mean you get to know a lot more about the beer than you might have expected. Please don’t get stuck up on price, look at the strength of the beers this is why they are served as 2⁄3 ½ or even 1⁄3 of a pint, It also adds up when you think of how much of normal strength beer you would get for the same price. If you get stuck on your choice just ask. There is a constantly changing choice of bottles in their fridges which means you’ll never get stuck. They also stock some of the best soft drinks I have ever tasted all bottled so they taste great. It is almost worth missing a round of beer to try them. The only down sides are the size, although any bigger it might loose the atmosphere, and the lack of hot foods although that is down to the size of the place. Go in, drink and enjoy.

Great place to have a nice beer and chill out with your mates. Great atmosphere, never any bother and plenty of quality beers to sample. Also they now do gin, vodka and cider so you can find something to suit everyone’s taste if you’re not into good craft beer.

What is it you’re looking for? If it’s pounds of value for flavour, this is where it’s at. Brewdog will stick more of everything into a beer than you can imagine. The staff are friendly and passionate about what they do. This is not, however, a Scottish pub. Think more along the lines of an American –style microbrewery, hops and all. Cold, fizzy, packed with flavour, and served in sizes other than pint — typically to match what you drink. Don’t think«jeesus, £3.50 for a half?»; rather, note that it’s a half at 9.1%, and drink it slowly and savour the bloody thing. Then get blasted drunk anyway ‘cos it’s all so good.

My favorite pub in Aberdeen. However, don’t be fooled by all the(I’ll concede, good) marketing material: this is an American-style microbrewery pub. It may be a revelation for the folks in Scotland but it just serves to make me feel at home — especially since they often serve beers from their friends from microbreweries in California. Welcome to the 21st century, Scotland!

Oh dear, it seems Unilocal are removing reviews? Where has mine gone? I did write that this place is slightly unclean and one wonders how bad it’ll get. The décor is grungy and industrial but no excuse for cleanliness. Great wee place for something a bit different and away from all the neds and beautiful people up town, a few do wander in at night but soon leave as the atmosphere is pretty chilled even at night. It’s all about their own real ale here. You’ve maybe seen their bottles in Tesco and the like by now. If your after a regular drink go elsewhere IE Woodford Reserve rather than Jack D. Not a huge fan of their ales but I enjoy poppin in for a pint of their 77. If you feel brave there are very very strong beers to be had but at a price. Not tried the grub but heard good things. Beer for Punks? I’ve never seen one which was a shame, an Iron Maiden roadie was present though.

I remember punks. Back several decades ago, when everything seemed to be owned or operated by corporations, along come these folks that decided that rules needed to be broken. Why break the rules? Why the hell not? If you don’t break them occasionally, you sometimes miss out on the best things in life. Move forward three decades and the grip that multinationals have on the way we live is even worse than it was back then. Especially in the world of Beer. We are sold this ancient beverage on the basis that it will make us funny, interesting or attractive to the opposite sex. Anything to keep us from actually tasting it and finding out how god awful it is. Brew Dog have set themselves as the standard bearers of Scottish Craft Brewing. Taking on all comers, including the brewing industry, the media and the Parliament, they have raise the banner of Real Beer and shaken the concept of what you should expect from your pint glass. This is the flagship bar for the Brew Dog boys. It allows them to get their products brewed in Fraserburgh to the public quickly. Walk in to the place and you would think you are in a New York Craft Brewery pub. All of the industrial and utilitarian styling of a fashionable Manhattan Bistro with Beer being the dominant theme. It shows that while this is beer we are talking about, it is not an old man pub that is serving it. Serving their own beers in draught and a wide selection of the best in bottled ales(such as Stone, Three Floyd’s, Mikkeller, Struise, Nogne O, Alesmith, The Bruery, and De Dolle). This place is a must visit for any beer-lover. Break the rules, drop that glass of fizzy pissy lager and demand better. Then get your butt in here.
