Introducing Beithir Fire, the world’s mightiest brew that comes with a friendly reminder: ‘Seriously, don’t chug more than 35ml at once!’ Why? Because this liquid dynamite is practically pure alcohol.
Sure, moderation is key with any drink, but with Beithir Fire, we’re talking moderation on steroids. This powerhouse ale is so potent, it might just turn your tongue into a popsicle. Clocking in at a jaw-dropping 75% ABV (Alcohol By Volume), this Scottish-style barley ale spends two months in the brewing cauldron before being supercharged with pure Scottish spirit. It then goes through a rigorous triple filtration process to ensure every drop is as pure as a Highland spring. Launched in 2021 by Scotland’s mad brewing scientists at 88Brewery, Beithir Fire quickly earned a reputation that’s as legendary as it is intimidating. But seriously, stick to 35ml per sitting, unless you fancy seeing double or waking up with your head in a bucket.
“As the world’s strongest beer, Beithir Fire isn’t for the faint-hearted,” warns the 88Brewery website. “Enjoy it in 35ml doses, or face the fiery consequences. We’re not liable for any heroic deeds or bad decisions you make after drinking it.”
And if the world’s strongest beer wasn’t enough, Beithir Fire is also one of the priciest, retailing at £45.95 ($129.10 FJD) a bottle. Is it worth it? Well, that’s up to you and your taste buds—or rather, your pain threshold. At 75% ABV, you might not remember the flavor, but you’ll definitely remember the fire in your throat!
