None on-board; I found a few in the Jubilee chiller and the (teeny) opener was just to the side. The date on the one I had was July 2022, I think, so they need drinking, clearly. Much more yeasty than I remember from 2019/20.

The late, lamented Speedbird 100 was originally created as a blend between two of their core beers at the time, Elvis Juice and Clockwork Tangerine. It later got its own recipe / brewsheet to recreate the same flavour.
The current JetStream offering I'm not so sure about. BrewDog have certainly rebadged beers in the past, or created "new" ones that are simply the most minor variations (anyone who tasted both "Aircraft" as was served in BA F and "Funk x Punk" will recognise this latter approach), but I can't immediately think what JetStream would be a rebadging of. I suspect, albeit without firm evidence, that it is a specific recipe.

Thanks in advance!

As you maybe know, BrewDog release their recipes in a format known as "DIY Dog" but the last release of that seems to be 2019 and doesn't contain Speedbird from what I can tell.
A future release might do so - I've seen other requests for it to be included - but no idea when or even if such a release would happen.

Can you design a beer can? Prizes: a year's supply of beer, or a trip to Aberdeen
