Iron Maiden x Pinter Launch Trooper Remixed – Brew a Beast at Home

Homebrewing has just become a bit more rockin’ as heavy metal band Iron Maiden partners with the simple to use hombrew kit maker Pinter. The new Brew A Beast kit from Pinter will allow both music and beer fans alike to brew a batch of Trooper, the highly acclaimed beer line created by legendary British heavy metal band Iron Maiden.

For the past 12 years, the full lineup of Trooper has been brewed by Cheshire family brewer, Robinsons and has sold over 40 million pints worldwide. Now the two entities have united with Pinter to launch a groundbreaking collaboration that provides the opportunity for beer and rock music fans to brew and enjoy their own Trooper beer at home.  

Crafted with Ion Maiden’s revered frontman, Bruce Dickinson, and approved by Martyn Weeks, Head Brewer at Robinsons and the man who developed Trooper Original with Bruce, the first beer release, Trooper Remixed, combines Bruce’s passion for excellence in every Trooper beer with Pinter’s ability to deliver it through the combination of a unique beer making system that is really easy to use and store in the fridge, and a carefully prepared recipe mix pack that will give you your very own Trooper brewing experience at home. 

“The Trooper X Pinter prototype box arrived whilst on tour last year so I left it straight to the Killer Krew to try it out,” stated Bruce Dickinson, frontman for Iron Maiden. “Then, shock, horror! Just a few days later they’d nailed as fresh a pint of Trooper as I’ve tasted…and I’ve tasted a few!”

This exciting new partnership invites beer enthusiasts and music fans worldwide to “Brew a Beast” right in their own homes.
