Supporters of Aberdeen FC participated in a poll with four choices, and Classic Stout emerged as the favorite, surpassing Rye IPA, Porter, and Brown Ale.
The outcome is a 4.2% dry Irish-style stout made using flaked and roasted barley, giving it a strong, dark roasted flavor.
Maris Otter pale malt creates a warm, comforting base, resulting in a stout that is both straightforward and enjoyable.
Craig Cargill, the Sales Manager at Fierce Beer, stated, "Launching Wasp during the UK's current 'stout revival' is perfectly timed."
As a brewery located in Aberdeen, we’re thrilled to collaborate with Aberdeen Football Club on an exciting initiative designed specifically for the local football community.
“With Wasp being a popular choice among rugby enthusiasts, we’re sure that fans of AFC will enjoy it just as much. Put on your jersey, grab a drink, and raise your glass to the upcoming match!”
Robbie Hedderman, the Commercial Director of Aberdeen FC, stated, "Our collaboration with Fierce Beer has introduced innovative offerings in football hospitality."
“The Wasp Stout is an excellent contribution to this partnership, and I’m confident it will be well-received.”
Wasp Stout can now be found at Fierce Bar in Aberdeen and is also available for purchase on their website. It will be more widely available in bars starting tomorrow.
