Buy The End of History | BrewDog Beer
This beer is packaged inside taxidermied roadkill.. wow
The End of History Beer May Be Strongest Ever (VIDEO)
The folks at the BrewDog brewery have outdone themselves. Fresh on the heels of April's successful Tactical Nuclear Penguin beer launch, the company has now debuted The End of History. This new beer clocks in at a whopping 55 percent (yes 55 percent) alcohol content, which packs quite a punch compared to the company's Tactical Nuclear Penguin (32 percent) and Sink the Bismarck! (41 percent).

This Klein Bottle Opens Beers
The problem of beer: That it is within a bottle, i.e. a boundaryless compact 2-manifold homeomorphic to the sphere. Since beer bottles are not (usually) pathological or "wild" spheres, but smooth manifolds, they separate 3-space into two disconnected regions: inside, containing beer, and outside, containing you. This state must not remain.
has anyone tried this beer?
suge_knight:
yea i would also love to try it, looks very interesting... almost syrupy. check my post on the strongest beers, apparently BrewDog brewed a stronger beer with a 41% ABV
ago
lando786:
I rarely pay more the $2 for a beer, usually just go for whatevers on happy hour =0). But that would be nice to taste
ago
benosteen:
Yes, and it rocks! Try the Punk IPA - that's really good, a beer with real flavour and at normal beer stength.

The Strongest Beers in the Universe
I want to try some/all of these.
Tactical Nuclear Penguin
The worlds strongest beer clocking in at 32%. I wants.
FlashGordon:
Apparently Brew Dog uses a method of "fractional freezing", this means that they do not achieve the ridiculously high alcohol content through just fermentation but instead they repeatedly freeze and extract the water.

Cicada:
All I read was "Dark, flavored everclear." Lol....but really. I'm not one for alcohol anyway. But....just a sip wouldn't hurt.... ::looks again:: nvm. I'll pass.

5 gallons of glory
Brewed up a batch of armenian imperial stout 2 days ago and it's looking dark and mean.
FlashGordon:
should be around 8% when it's all said and done and yes i do keep it in a cool, dark closet just thought the window would be a better spot for a pic
ago
FlashGordon:
I use this homemade copper-spiral-thingy that i pump cold water through. I didn't use it on this batch though, instead i just added the 2 gal. of hot wort to 3 gal. of cold water in the carboy.
ago
ben:
@chris you should check this out. He has a homemade copper spiral for cooling.
@FlashGordon can you give us any tips on materials, design, and methods of using your copper cooling apparatus? We are looking into doing this over the "adding to cold water" method. (in fact we used about 20 pounds of ice) ago

FlashGordon:
It's very simple, go to your local mega-hardware store and pick up a 8'-12' coil of copper tubbing 3/8"-1/4" and grab about 6'-7' (depending on the distance from your sink to your stove top) of plastic tubing, make sure it will fit snugly over the copper tubing and then grab some hose clamps. The most importance piece is the part connecting your sink to the plastic tubing, make sure you measure your faucet before leaving the house to avoid a return trip.
ago
FlashGordon:
Look for a simple faucet adapter that will attach nicely to you plastic tubing. Once you're home uncoil the copper so it will be fairly evenly dispersed throughout your brew kettle. You'll find this much better than 20 lbs of ice, lol.

Some things younger than the Weihenstephaner brewery
The Enlightenment, the Renaissance, the Magna Carta, the Japanese shogunate, Genghis Khan, the second and third Crusades, the Battle of Hastings, and the Eastern Orthodox Church.
chris:
@MooseLord, no way--the Catholic Church was supposed to have been founded by Jesus and the Apostles.
ago
MooseLord:
Oh wait, I had a major fail. I thought you were challenging us to think of things "older" then this brewery and still relevant.
ago
MooseLord:
I guess this would explain why German beer trumps just about every other kind on the planet. Anybody got anything better?
ago
FlashGordon:
1168 Oxford was founded, the 4th Crusade(1200-1204) as well as the Children's Crusade (1212), the Spanish Inquisition (1231), The Hundred Year War (1337-1437), The Black Plague, The MIng Dynasty, The Canterbury Tales, The Incan Empire to name a few more
ago
MooseLord:
@jaimemaldonado45, Justinian I was emperor of East Rome in the 6th century, this beer was first brewed in 1040. So the beer is younger than Justinian's edicts. Unless you meant something different.

missmolly324:
@chris - Cool find! However, I still stand by my assertion. I've always been under the impression that Piers Plowman is the earliest known usage of English for literature (instead of French, which was the language used in aristocratic and educated circles - coloquial English was for the rubes). It's my impression that this example is an official use of the English language, which is a category of its own.
ago
chris:
excellent clarification, though, I didn't quite consider the subtlety of your original comment
ago
missmolly324:
It looks, though, like it might be modern English. What I was referring to was middle English. Even more subtlety!
