One week after small Scottish brewery Brew Dog produced a beer called ‘The End of History’ with 55% alcohol by volume, a Dutch brewer has gone one better with ‘Start the Future’ at 60% alcohol by volume, or 120 degrees proof.
Only 12 bottles of End of History were produced and carried a price tag of £500 per bottle. The bottles were also housed inside stuffed dead animals.
Start the Future sells for £29 for a one-third litre bottle and is made in Almere by ‘t Koelschip (The Refrigerated Ship).
