I love their stuff, I really do. Especially Blood Red Sky.

Simple question, based on the above, what else should I try?

Thanks.

Belhaven speyside oak cask

Take a trip to Edinburgh and go to their beer kitchen. Its across the road from one of Brewdogs biggest bars.

Wait a year or so and you can visit their new brewery too on the campus of herriot watt uni in edinburgh

Current restrictions aside, they do an awesome burger for £12
Usually I get annoyed at paying more than a tenner, but it was top quality, served with triple cooked chips and was delicious.
The only issue was that it left hardly any room for beer 🍻

I've just ordered some from Harviestoun Brewery. They do similar barrel aged stuff to Innis & Gunn and the descriptions make them sound delicious (like they would). I'll report back.

Not sure how it compares to the cask matured stuff but I've been very impressed with this brew that I discovered in my local Tesco. You don't need a lot of it but the flavour is lovely !

Love Broughton IPA - rich, dark, sweet. Goes well with curry.

Never tried the Blood Red Sky beer but the 2 i like that have a similar profile:

Guinness West Indies

King Goblin Imperial Ruby

If you can get hold of it then Old Tom is a fantastic bottle conditioned strong fruity ale

Blood Red Sky is easily my go to beer and improved with chilling, pity Morrisons are limiting it to a maximum purchase of 3 per shop even when still promoting 4 for £6 frown
