Welcome to the (relatively) New BrewDog Gatwick Airport
Hot Wings & Cold Beer (whatโs not to love?)
As I approached BrewDogโs new outpost at Gatwick Airportโs North Terminal, my eyes were immediately drawn to a tantalizing sign at the entrance: โHot Wings & Cold Beer.โ This simple yet effective message perfectly encapsulates what BrewDog does best.
The promise of this classic combo lured me in, and Iโm glad it did. The hot wings lived up to their billing โ crispy, generously sauced, and with just the right amount of heat to wake up my taste buds without overwhelming them. The blue cheese dip on the side provided a cool counterpoint to the spice.
As for the cold beer, BrewDogโs selection didnโt disappoint. From their flagship Punk IPA to seasonal specialties, each brew was served at the perfect temperature to complement the wings and quench my thirst. The staff even let me sample a few and boy are there some extremes, thanks team for going the extra mile!
PS here is a tip I got from the team, go hang out side Krispy Kreme before closing (9pm) and you might get some freebies!

During my visit to BrewDog Gatwick Airport, I decided to try their Hot Wings from the โWorld Famous Wingsโ section.

Itโs a 6.5% ABV brew listed under the Pale Ale & IPA section.
