Armageddon: The World’s Strongest Beer
Called “Armageddon”, the name is no accident, it is the strongest beer in the world. At 65 per cent alcohol, it’s stronger than whiskey or brandy and 16 times more potent than a standard lager.
A Scottish brewery claims to have created the world’s strongest beer – a 65% alcohol drink called Armageddon.
And it is proving so popular that there is a two-week wait for delivery – despite the £40 price tag for a single 330ml bottle.
Created by Scottish firm Brewmeister, the beer is made from crystal malt, wheat and flaked oats and is freeze fermented to bring it to the required ABV.
A pint of the beer contains an alarming 37 units of alcohol – twice the recommended weekly intake for a man.
Brewmeister says the beer should be ‘consumed like a fine whisky’.
A spokesman said: “Despite being 65%, the beer has a lot of flavour – malty, hoppy, slightly sweet and lots of yeast still in the beer.
“Be careful though, smelling it is probably enough to put you over the limit!”
Brewery founder Lewis Shand told Standard Media: “The phrase “delivers a punch” doesn’t quite cut it – delivers a supersonic charged explosion is probably more appropriate.”
Joke Of The Day: Redneck Baptism
Before performing a baptism, the priest approached the young father and said solemnly, “Baptism is a serious step. Are you prepared for it?”
“I think so,” the man replied. “My wife has made appetizers and we have a caterer coming to provide plenty of cookies and cakes for all of our guests.”
“I don’t mean that,” the priest responded. “I mean, are you prepared spiritually?”
“Oh, sure,” came the reply. “I’ve got a keg of beer and a case of whiskey.”
