Hmmm. Quite surprised to read that. Local bloggers were getting their knickers in a twist about Leeds being the next city on BrewDog's list:

Maybe next in line?

Indeed, and thank goodness this isn't quite as far north as soulless up-its-own-arse Camden Town. Maybe a possible call in when passing thru Euston.

Yes. Glad I didn't find that Betfair market for next Brewdog location...!

Despite using the phrase 'craft ale' I suspect that this, like their others, will be keg-only.

Which is fair enough but I won't be making a massive beeline for it if so.

What's wrong with keg? Their 5am Saint is absolute sublime from it.

Because 5am Saint is even better from cask! I'll probably pop in, but it won't necessarily be as exciting for me to get to as the revamped Southampton Arms or Euston Tap were. It'll be filed under "when I'm passing" rather than "specific diversion".

Didn't know that. Shame if they can't cater for a broader (& some may say target) audience with at least a couple of HPs.

hee hee, whilst they make a big bluster about being 'artisan' and 'craft' they're after long life kegs that can be put into trendy pubs and bars and increase profits just like it's 1972.

If they can't even be bothered to put in a couple of casks in their own bars it makes you wonder whether they will simply stop casking altogether in a few years. Or whether they realise that the type of person they are likely to employ in these bars is just some tragic workshy wannabe-hipster who doesn't have the braincells to look after the cellar properly.

Everyone loses, really.

Well I've not yet seen it on cask, but it would be pretty hard to improve upon the keg or bottled version.

I expect like most cask ale, it could be very nice or it could be appalling. I've known very good beers in very good pubs to be unable to be enjoyed as nothing like real thing.
