Once again BrewDog is asking YOU to vote for your favorite prototype beer.  The winning beer will get brewed in 2013 at part of BrewDog’s regular line up of beers so vote now.  Details from BrewDog:

Have a rocking Christmas with this fantastic set of awesome BrewDog Prototype beers. Introducing Nuns with Guns, Jackhammer and Cocoa Psycho, get your paws on ’em right here –http://www.brewdog.com/product/prototype-challenge-2012

Our annual prototype challenge sees 3 potential new beers go head to head and you guys vote as to which of the beers you would like to see us brew permanently in 2013.

Vote for your favourite right here and decide which prototype we feature most in our line up for 2013. Here are this year’s title contenders:

Nuns with Guns

A hoppy, dry hopped low ABV reasonably malty pilsner. At 4.2% this amber hued little gem infuses wholesome BrewDog hoppiness with classic lager sharpness. Best enjoyed whilst whistling the European Union’s national anthem (does it have one), munching on a bratwurst and planning a weekend trip to Prague whilst listening to the Beastie Boys.

ABV: 4.2%

OG: 1044

IBU: 25

Hops: Cascade, Centennial, Chinook, Amarillo

Malts: Extra-Pale, Cara and Munich

Jack Hammer

A beer which made a brief guest appearance in our bars this summer. Jack Hammer is loaded with so much hops that this 7.2% IPA will literally destroy your mouth with it’s 200 theoretical IBUs. The most bitter beer we have ever brewed. This one is not for the feint hearted, elderly or French. If you like hops and bitterness then go ahead. But be warned.

ABV: 7.2%

OG: 1069

IBU: 100

Hops: Centennial and Columbus

Malts: Extra Pale Spring Blend

Cocoa Psycho

A 10% decadent and indulgent Imperial Russian Stout. Brewed with a copious amount of dark malts, infused with coffee beans during the boil and after fermentation and aged on cacao nibs, vanilla pods and toasted oak chips.

This opulent whirl of chocolate, coffee, dark malts and hops even rivals the most colourful of imperial Faberge eggs. Originally created to celebrate the Russian Royal Family, this is a fitting tribute with which to toast your own empire.

ABV: 10%

OG: 1095

IBU: 85

Hops: Cascade, Fuggles and Goldings

Malts: Extra Pale Spring Blend, Wheat, Cara, Smoked, Black and Roasted Barley
