Mixed Drinks, Hungover Thoughts

Asylum – Our old buddies BrewDog have done it again. Not content with winning back the “strongest beer in the world” title last February with its Sink the Bismarck!, they’ve now upped their game with a new brew that is 55 percent alcohol by volume and carries a $765 price tag. It’s called The End of History.

Oh, and did we mention that the bottles come in stuffed animals-like stuffed animals that were once alive? The 12 bottles have been made featuring seven dead stoats (a kind of weasel), four squirrels and one rabbit. James Watt, one of the two guys behind BrewDog, put it better than we ever could: “The impact of The End of History is a perfect conceptual marriage between taxidermy, art and craft brewing.” Just like we’ve all been waiting for!

Just what we’ve been waiting for? Where are these guys from!? I couldn’t name one person who’s ever said, “mmm this beer tastes good. If only I could drink it out of a squirrel!” If you have heard someone say that, then you’re lying, and leave our blog now.

For all of those that are still here, would you drink this beer? Stupid question, the beer is 55% alcohol, of course you’re drink it. New question. Would you drink this beer out of the bottle? Your lips would be getting awfully close to that of a vermin’s. I for one would use a rubber glove to pour that beer into a sanitary glass. No way I’m going to 1st base with a squirrel on the first sip. I have class people.
