I occasionally use the phrase, “Hey, toss me another brewdog” when chilling with the ESP crew. It is quite obvious that Esperanza enjoys our craft beer, but THE END OF HISTORY by BREWDOG has basically blown my idea of craft brews completely out of the water. This insane/genius type activity out of Brewdog, which has plenty of other interesting beers, has jumped from the tricycle to the rocket ship of craft brew. I don’t know how any of their beers taste, but they are forging ahead and testing any and all boundaries that have ever been set in regards to craft brewing. I love to see this type of creativity, especially when it involves beer
There are many unique things about BREWDOG’S “THE END OF HISTORY” beer. First, it costs $770 a bottle. Next, it contains 55% alcohol. And of course, a $770 beer containing 55% alcohol, can only come in one type of package, ANIMAL CARCASS.
The End of History ale has a stronger alcohol content than most whiskeys, and BrewDog advises that the beer should be consumed as such. Poured into a shot glass, ‘to be enjoyed like a fine whiskey”.
BrewDog insists that no animals were killed in order to make the bottles. The 7 stoats, 4 hares, and 1 squirrel, all died of natural causes.
”This is the beer to end all beers. It’s an audacious blend of eccentricity, artistry and rebellion; changing the general perception of beer, one stuffed animal at a time…The End Of History is a perfect conceptual marriage between taxidermy, art and craft brewing.”
Finally, a beer that blends taxidermy and extreme amounts of alcohol.
