This is a normal post Alcoholics don't drink Brew Dog.
Brew Dog beers are basically alcopops marketed towards men. They're almost entirely consumed by wanky 20 something's that want to appear more sophisticated/left-field than the Stella/Carslberg crowd so instead choose to drink cleverly marketed faux craft ales.

Before minimum pricing, you'd have got *far* better mileage out of a 3 Litre bottle of Frosty Jack's than you would out of a 4 pack of that Brew Dog pish. I got sober before that nonsense kicked in, thank fuck. But I'd assume it's mostly vodka and K Cider these days.

This is a normal post Ah, Brewdog
Never one to let a marketing opportunity go begging, are they?

(Why yes, my grumpypants are very comfortable, thank you for asking.)

This is a normal post "All profits will go to funding our production of free sanitiser for the NHS & Health Care Charities."
And they've been doing the sanitiser thing for a while now. Not starting a fight, just pouring some custard in to your grumpy pants for fun.

But that's how marketing works. You now think they're a nice company and are more likely to be a customer of theirs.

This is a normal post I know.
I just wanted custard in the grumpy pants. That is a normal sentence, my time in lockdown is being well spent. Time to open myself a refreshing bottle of Perlenbacher Pils, the finest beer in Lidl.

"the finest beer in Lidl" feels like an extraordinarily low bar. Like "the best car at the knacker's yard" or "the prettiest girl in the burns ward".

This is a normal post You haven't drunk much dodgy homebrew then.
Cheapest in Lidl is luxury.

This is a normal post No, they're not.
And they're very successful.

I'm not defending/endorsing them here, just saying that they're very good at marketing.

Like Dominic Cummings was, until last week.
