Our old buddies BrewDog have done it again. Not content with winning back the "strongest beer in the world" title last February with its Sink the Bismarck!, they've now upped their game with a new brew that is 55 percent alcohol by volume and carries a $765 price tag. It's called The End of History.
Oh, and did we mention that the bottles come in stuffed animals-like stuffed animals that were once alive? The 12 bottles have been made featuring seven dead stoats (a kind of weasel), four squirrels and one rabbit. James Watt, one of the two guys behind BrewDog, put it better than we ever could: "The impact of The End of History is a perfect conceptual marriage between taxidermy, art and craft brewing." Just like we've all been waiting for!
For those interested in the actual beer, it's a blond Belgian ale with touches of nettles and juniper berries -- and in order to achieve the brain-blasting alcohol content, it had to be created using extreme freezing techniques.
Keep reading for another photo and a video about the making of the super-strong beer.

This BrewDog video about the creation of The End Of History is well worth a watch.

Why did they make the bottle come out the squirrel's mouth? Why not the other end?

Because then the squirrel would have to do a handstand and the beer would be unstable.

That’s because it would be offensive for those who prefer to drink from the bottle.

They aren't selling "beer". Normal yeasts only go up to about 23%. They are selling freeze distilled malt liquor. These people are idiots.

Care to qualify that remark.

Wow, it's hard to rebut a devastating and well-supported argument like that. Mostly 'cause you didn't make one.

Actually Red's comment is spot-on. Most beer yeast kills itself around the 5% mark with stronger strains (e.g. those used in Belgian trappist ales) maxing out at about 12%. To get a "beer" with such a high alcohol content you have to fortify it with high-proof spirit, at which point it's no longer a beer.
Yes, these people are indeed idiots.

They didn't add spirits, they just processed the beer with freezing techniques until the alcohol content was high enough. Read the article.

Lighten up, guys. They're just squirrels. My dog kills and eats them all the time. It's not like there aren't enough of them.
Although personally, I don't think I'd want to drink my beer out of a rat with a furry tail.

this just redefined my whole perception of art inspired by alcohol. If I weren't just about to have a kid I would buy a bottle of this stuff and put it on my mantle.

Are you kidding me? Art? Because you just have to dress up your alcohol beverage in a clothed squirrel, hmm maybe warm beer is very effective. Very practical obviously.But then again it’s just a squirrel. What’s next, a Chihuahua?

Inside a chihuahua is a terrific idea I think!
It could be a chipotle beer and the little guys could be wearing sombreros of varying styles.

Yeah... I eat meat, but, uhh, this is pretty f****d up. Though, why the **** would they care what I think. Some d-bag that is willing to pay $800 for a ******* beer will think it's cool. Just like if you went to a bar where you had to pay $20 just to get in... you'd be in a room full of ******* morons.

While I like beer and have killed a squirrel before when I was much younger and dumber, I find this utterly disturbing. It's plainly obvious that the brewers have an utter disregard for life of any kind, which is generally not good for anyone. We, like the squirrels are animals no matter how much people want to deny it. The point of humanity is to control animalistic behaviors and become something more than an animal. This is obviously a step in the reverse direction, and an obvious indicator of how F*&@KED up American society is now. No wonder everyone hates us. I wouldn't mind tasting the beer, but not as long as it's packaged like that.
