I would try a wire brush. Honestly I'd worry that any type of chemical solvent would stain the brick, so I'd try the scrape-off type methods first. And you'd likely want to re-seal it afterwards too. Good luck!

Good luck!
I knocked over a whole new paint can and spent hours trying to sop it all up. I was so worn out I couldn't finish. I got a big bottle of vinegar and poured it straight on the floor the next day and left it. It actually seemed to get it out of the pores! I was able to get ALL the paint blobs up!
