English reformers during from the late 18th century were trying to get people to switch from gin to ale/beer because of the alcohol content of gin. Now the Nanny staters are freaking out because of a strong beer?

“BrewDog said it launched Nanny State in response to the outcry caused after launching Tokyo* with an 18.2 per cent alcohol content.”

This must have been 8 quid a pint, what with their graduated tax, if not more. I doubt cellarmen would know how to deal with it, unless it was just at the brewery or something.

Crap! Their Tokyo* @ 18.2 is about $15 per bottle. That alone would stop binge drinking!~

Pinging the Homebrewers for pithy comments.

I have actually brewed one of these before.

It came in at right around 1 % and tasted, well, it tasted like what it was.

Like kissing your sister :)





On or off the Homebrewers Ping List, let me know.

Cheers,
