A controversial Scottish brewery has said it has reclaimed the title of the world's strongest beer from German rivals - with Sink the Bismarck at 41%.
BrewDog, of Fraserburgh, made headlines last year when it unveiled a 32% beer called Tactical Nuclear Penguin.
However, Schorschbrau released the 40% strength Schorschbock.
BrewDog said its newly released 41%, Sink the Bismarck, would cost £40 for a 330ml bottle and would only be sold online.

Crappy salute.
Yes, but even if you live, you will still be in Russia.

If one ia to be stuck in Russia, it would probably be best to be drunk all the time and to die young.
I’ve got one that I am bottling tomorrow called Novocain, it’s 11.3. I have to condition it for 6 Months. Thanks Mr. Beer!!!

Sorry for the double post!!
Seriously, is it double-fermented or something? I.e do you add sugar before bottling?
From the reviews when you first drink it your mouth gores numb! LOL. The recipe uses a four cans of selected Hopped malt. Plus extra hops etc. It is considered a barley wine. We shall see, saving it for this next Thanksgiving. It says it needs to be conditioned for six months to a year!!
Depending on the size of the bottle an amount of sugar is added for carbonation in each bottle!
It's the 'Eisbock' (ice bock) process, where the brew is frozen and ice removed, leaving the rest with a higher alcohol concentration. Guess in a way it could be considered a form of distillation.
My thought, exactly.
