BrewDog: yet another hip company using 'rebel' language to sell its stuff

[teuchter]

I know you'll all find this hard to believe but I've heard from someone who's seen the report and it's a lot less positive than the BBC article makes out. I dare say there'll be something on Punks With Purpose soon.

Well, we can listen to the trusted voice of the nation, the BBC, or we can listen to your friend who is probably being paid off by some global corporate brewing operation that wants to shut down an enterprising independent Scottish business keeping the spirit of punk alive in these difficult times.

Now this is the teuchter we know and love, welcome back pal we were worried about you for a bit.

I am shocked, I tell you.

I know someone who knows someone whose wife used to work for BD. She says all employees get free massages at the end of each shift, free turkeys at Xmas, and lobster and caviar on their birthdays.

So whatever happened to those free cans of branded water they were handing out at covid test centres and all the places they were opening up for use by the NHS (or whatever their covid-related cash-in lies were?).

Imagine using a pandemic as an opportunity to promote your own commercial brand. What a bunch of shameless cunts you'd have to be.

Step forward Brewdog,

Yep; that's pretty bad...but...Pecan salted caramel stout?

WTF

That beer sounds ghastly. You deserve everything that's coming to you on your next visit to the toilet.

That sounds fantastic. Far better than a dull pint of CAMRA approved Fartwells Old Scrotum at any rate.

No qualms about loving up a company with what has to be the worst employee record in the industry in recent times, then?

And that drink sounds like just the sort of novelty drivel that bored, more-money-than-sense hipsters get up all Instagrammed up about. Nice cheap dig at CAMRA too.

That’s one of the very few BD brews I would try.

Thanks to Brewdog.

You'd have to put some effort into convincing me that 330ml of a dead, canned, confected "beer" is better than an actual pint of real ale.

Well you will be able to discuss tasting notes with dessiato from adjoining cubicles.

I’d rather have something that tastes interesting and hasn’t got a mixture of twigs, line cleaner and the publicans toenail clippings in it.

Wow. Just look at you ridiculing and putting down independent breweries just because they're not trendy.

A lot of real ale is shit too though, tbf.

You're obviously not a very discerning consumer.

Blimey, where you been drinking?

it's overhopped bollocks - i've tried things like nanny state and some of their other offerings and it seems to me their target market is people whose taste buds have been eroded over the years. it's the alcohol free equivalent of tabasco. only it isn't nice with anything unlike the well-known pepper sauce.

Outstanding work!

So is the rest of their output. People buy the fuck out of it though. I think maybe because they appreciate the service that BD have done for the brewing industry in general, and it's single-handed revival of the punk movement.

somehow i am not surprised.
