BrewDog Beers?

[ArmChair]

Tonight I picked up 3 beers from Tesco, all BrewDog!

I know a lot of you guys are against BrewDog, as there over hopped beers.But I think im becoming a Hop Head.

Does any one have any good Recipe's for them?

the ones I had and enjoyed was:

5am Saint 5.0%
Punk Ipa 5.6%
Alice Porter 6.3%

There were some Dead Pony Club ideas for clones kicking about.

They are a bit up themselves but they generally make nice beers. My Tesco doesn't sell any but I sometimes pick them up in Sainsburys.

BigDave worked-up an Alice Porter clone he called Malice Porter over here: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=56658&hilit=+malice+porter
I haven't had the BrewDog, but I had his and it was great.

If you go to You Tube and do a search for "Big Secue" (a homebrewer from Dundee) you will find some videos of a tour he did at the Brewdog Brewery. You might get some tips from them. For instance I think the head brewer mentions using caramalt in Punk IPA.

What is Vaux yeast?

[Hanglow]

It's their house yeast , I assume from the old Vaux company. brewlabs might have it. There was a thread on here where someone said that they only use that in a couple of their beers, the rest is just US05
