The company is known for producing it's flagship product Punk IPA, which is the companies biggest selling ale. When the brewery first opened they offered a range of ales and lagers in bottle, keg and cask. However, in recent years BrewDog have shifted away from offering a cask conditioned product, causing a rift between the company and cask ale consumer group the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA). Currently the majority of BrewDog's ales and lagers are produced in keg and bottle and can only. They do however, still produce the occasional cask ale for export markets in Scandinavia and the United States.
