I was in the BrewDog bar in NCL on Saturday and, partly because I was confused as to the start date for the BAEC discount and partly because I didn't realise it was just 5% for BAEC members, I actually managed to get 10% off all my beers there in spite of it only being 27th April.
I was in the Newcastle Brewdog last week and none of the staff knew about the discount.

The first member of staff I spoke to didn't have a clue about the discount either, but his colleague did. I had my card with me so showed that, but I'd like to think that the app card would be sufficient although I can't confirm one way or the other

From a friend on HEL this morning :
Claims to be bitter sweet and it IS bitter but in a grapefruit sense rather than a hoppy bitter. Basically tasted like grapefruit juice mixed with Punk IPA.
Just FYI : Despite being in CE had to purchase from BoB menu as not loaded into CE !! Would have again if served in CE but wouldn't pay £4.45 for BoB.

Doesn't seem to be available at the CCR. The bar staff had no idea what a Speedbird IPA was. Hopefully it's loaded on BA31 later today.
Edit: none in GF either.

Is AirCraft in the CCR ?
We are also dialling in a small-batch exclusive beer from the BrewDog OverWorks team for those lucky enough to be travelling in First on British Airways.
AirCraft is a dry-hopped Brett-fermented IPA incorporates the rich fruity esters and flavours from Brettanomyces with the notorious tropical hops of the south pacific for a bold but balanced hop experience

It was served on MAN-LHR (CE) this morning and I quite liked it. I am sat on a delayed BA275 (LAS) and the ‘Air Craft’ is on offer. I’ll try both and review on my arrival.

Sampled it on BA2774 LGW - JER this afternoon. Not unpleasant and the fruity taste comes across quite subtly. CC asked if it was good as they wanted to sample it when they were off duty!
