No one will every get close in BeerSmith for most of these recipes using their Hop adds to match the IBU's no matter how you adjust. 250 IBU? Really? Why?
#177 - 18.3% from OG of 1.067  ???
...And to get the OG's you have to have an efficiency of 62-66%  :-\
I haven't looked at the recipes, but keep in mind that Homebrew recipes in the UK are for 5 British gallons or 23 liters vs the 5 US gallons or 19 liters.

sense check a recipe before you try it,
True about most any recipe collection but +1, yes.

It's a solid collection of workable ideas. Moreso even than for the collection itself, I applaud BrewDog's decision to throw their entire range into the public domain. To me, that is testament to the genuineness of their corporate idenity. Walk the walk, talk the talk, and it looks to me like they do both. Sometimes annoyingly balls out, but definitely on the other end of the moral spectrum than your average Carlos Brito.

...and remember that 1 US liter = 1 British litre  :D

Ha ha. They spelled flavor wrong on practically every page. What dummies.


Similarly, 1 US flavor = 1 UK flavour.  ::)

Once when talking to a British tourist in CA about the gas prices there vs the UK, we had to get to the 3.8 liter=1 US gallon to come to an understanding to what he was paying per liter in the US vs the £/Liter in the UK.
