THIS BEER IS
Dog D is an extra special brew, marking 8 years of BrewDog. Like Dog A, B & C before it, Dog D is an Imperial Stout with speciality ingredients, only this time we’ve barrel-aged it too. Dog D pours like dark matter into your glass, with a deep tan head. The nose is subtle but powerful, and on the palate, there’s a treacle toffee backbone, supporting the spicy hop flavour and naga chilli heat.

BREWER'S TIP
Steep the coffee in the hot wort for short periods to get the best extraction of aromatic oils, without gaining too much bitterness.
