Find your perfect gin

The story of Brew Dog has been one of innovation, rebellion, getting it wrong, getting it right, and sticking two fingers up to the man. What started as two friends, Martin Dickie and James Watt, making beer in their garage and selling at farmer’s markets is today a craft beer phenomenon. In 2017, the Brewdog founders decided the time was right to develop a range of spirits with the same rebel spirit that inspired the early days of the business.

Brewdog Distilling Co. produces Scottish Gins, Scottish Vodka, Scottish Rum and more under the guidance and direction of Master Distiller Steven Kersley. The distillery mill mashes grain, ferments wort, and distils to create its base spirit. Everything is done from scratch, meaning the distillery team is each spirit’s custodian from start to finish. The first release was LoneWolf Gin, which was painstakingly distilled and constantly tweaked to perfection over 192 different gin distillations.

BrewDog Distilling Co. Distillery

The original BrewDog Distillery was located in the same building as the brewery before eventually moving to its purpose built distillery building on-site at the Brewdog Brewery in Ellon. The distillery is equipped with a variety of stills and equipment so that the distillery can produce any number of spirits from scratch. A combination of wheat, barley, fresh water and the distillery’s special yeast are combined and distilled through a one of its kind three-headed bubble still, along with one of the UK’s tallest reflux columns, coming in at just shy of 60ft tall, used produce the base alcohol spirit that’s used in several products produced at the distillery.
