<font color = mediumspringgreen> That's wonderful. The oversensitive animal rights activists are amusing, as well. </font>

I couldn't envision paying that much for a beer, even if it crammed down a dead critter's gullet. And why not just use stuffed animals, if it's just a gimmick? Creepy!

Those same guys brought out the "Tactical Nuclear Penguin" beer a few years ago. I don't personally go for taxidermy, but i do have to salute a sense of humour.

Apparently the Dutch are in a one-ups contest...

Quote:
<h2>Brewer claims world's strongest beer</h2>AMSTERDAM (Reuters) – A Dutch brewer with a penchant for competition has laid claim to creating the world's strongest brew: a beer that is some 60 percent alcohol by volume.

"You don't drink it like beer, but like a cocktail -- in a nice whisky or cognac glass," brewer Jan Nijboer told Dutch news agency ANP.

Nijboer's Almere-based brewery, 't Koelschip (The Refrigerated Ship), sells the new beer, which is 120 proof and dubbed "Start the Future," in a one-third liter bottle for 35 euros ($45) each.

Nijboer told ANP he developed the new brew to keep up with Scottish outfits that were also pushing the boundaries of beer's alcohol content.

His previous record-holder, a beer called Oblix that was 90 proof (45 percent alcohol by volume), was eclipsed by a Scottish beer that reached 55 percent.

That beer, dubbed "The End of History," was announced last week by a small brewery called BrewDog. Only 12 bottles were made, each housed inside a stuffed dead animal and sold starting at 500 pounds ($780) each.

"It has become a little competition," Nijboer said. "You should see it as a joke."
