Those crazy Scots are up to it again! BrewDog has again raised the championship belt for highest ABV beer with the release of its new brew: The End of History. This blonde Belgian ale comes in a 330ml bottle which drinkers are encouraged to consume in small quantities. Weighing in at a hefty 55% they claim this is their last foray in the ABV arms race we have seen over the last few years, citing it is “the final installment of our efforts to redefine the limits of contemporary brewing.”
In addition to the dangerous ABV:
In true BrewDog fashion we’ve torn up convention, blurred distinctions and pushed brewing and beer packaging to its absolute limits. This beer is an audacious blend of eccentricity, artistry and rebellion; changing the general perception of beer one stuffed animal at a time.
Stuffed animal. You read that correctly. But no teddy bear or cuddly ‘brew’ dog, instead this limited release (only 11 bottles) comes packaged in repurposed road kill! Four are packaged in grey squirrels and seven in stoats (aka ermine or short-tailed weasel). Mmmm!
Oh yes, I forgot to mention at a bottle will run you ₤500. Except that it won’t, because it sold out and you can’t have any. I imagine the taxidermist gets a fair cut of that.
Schorschbrau was unavailable for comment on their retaliation plan at the time of this posting. Nor was BrewDog available for comment to comment on the pending comment regarding Schorschbrau’s retaliation plans.
