Nice video. I'm convinced. Now the struggle to find somewhere that sells it! You've got to love BrewDog.

great review mate, i do love brewdog

I'm aware of this. Like I said previously, there are solubility limits on hop acids. You can add all the hops you'd like, but at some point the beer will become saturated and no more oils will dissolve. Solubility is temperature, pH, and alcohol % dependent, but you're not going to get much more than 100-120 IBU any way you spin it. Advertising any higher than that is simply a marketing ploy and has no physical significance.

Usually the limit is said to be about a 100 to 120 IBU. If you go above that it is very hard (or impossible) to detect differences in bitterness. For reference look a page 188 in "Brew classic styles" by Zainasheff and Palmer. The Pliny the elder clone has about a half kilo of hops for 15 liters of finished beer and is recorded as having an IBU of over 284 but is normally counted as having an IBU of 100+.

There are solubility limits on hop acids/resins, so there is an upper limit on IBU's.

i've really got to try this. Very unique sounding!

It was on sale in the 'Deals for Punks' section but I just checked and it's out of stock! It's really quite a remarkable brew!
I just put up a video for Tokyo*, their new super-strong beer, check it out - that's amazing!

I heard that the upper limit of bitterness detection is around 150IBU, but technically I guess the IBU could be an infinite amount, it's just whether we can taste it or not. And it's easy to make a beer really hoppy and really weak, it's just whether or not it actually tastes good... and this does! I know Mikkeller brewed a beer with a theoretical 2007IBUs!!
I'd say the beer was less gimmick and more to prove a point that you can have a very hoppy beer at a low ABV. It's a cool experiment!
