never used them but I'm sure Brewdog use them in brews including dead pony club, I think they call them HBC as far as I know, although that may be alot of shecht, I'm sure I read that somewhere when planning my clone Dead Pony Club beer.

for my recipe for the dead pony club? aye here - http://thehomebrewforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=35455&hilit=pony I've had a taste of it, it's not bad at all, not quite there in terms of a full on clone but it would never be due to the amount of hops Brewdog use. would possibly mash at 68 degrees for a bit more body next time and increase the caramalt to around 500-550g

Just copied this from the Wikipeadia link I posted in the "hop characteristics" sticky.

The only info it doesn't give is the AA%, but it's a usefull description.

I made a lovely pale with them. They have it all. Spicey, fruity, piney I love them.

I smelled pomelo, definitely. Some say it's grapefruit peel.
