Found this:

whilst browsing the excellent Brew Dog site. Looks good (and rather powerful) and has a lovely frosterisk to enhance ones drinking experience! Is this what Frosties would drink in Tokyo?

Jolly good!

I love the "intergalactic" tag.

At 18.2%, it'll send anyone who drinks it intergalatic! Bloody rocketfuel!

18.2% :shock:

That'll put hairs on your chest for sure.

I think you'd need it to be that high in alcohol to take your mind off what sounds like a frankly disgusting beer:

QuoteThis imperial stout is brewed with copious amounts of speciality malts, jasmine and cranberries.

Then again, just how did this Jasmine manage to get the Cranberries as her backing band?

WOW I've haven't seen that much alcohol in a beer outside of homebrews.... WOW...

Well, as if 18.2% beer wasn't strong enough, BrewDog have just released Tactical Nuclear Penguin at spectacular 32%!

Indeed - and that was the subject of Jem's most recent blog on VFTC!

As he said, "That's proper, that is."

I love how they can brew one called 'Nanny State' which was 1% abv (and a response to the criticism of Tokyo) and then go to the other extreme with 'Penguin'

Top stuff. Although for Xmas I will stick to the Punk IPA at a modest 6%....

I found the Punk IPA in a beer shop in Leiden of all places, was very nice. Weird as the brewery was just up the road from where I used to live and I'd never heard of it.

What I must do is try and get hold of some Norwegian Frost, haven't had a bottle for ages. Every time I try to do a search for it online I get loads of hits for some death metal band ;-)

Yay - found it :

Can't help but feel it's missing something...

Looks tasty!

Maybe it's visible in the bottom of the bottle when the contents are 'elsewhere'?

RacingHippo · December 18, 2009, 01:04:27 PM

What the hell's an arctic crowberry?

No clue.
Have you ever Krekled?
