If you were hoping to get your hands on the world's strongest beer, sold in bottles made from the carcasses of a dead varmints, you're too late. The BBC reports that "The End of History" is sold out.
But cheer up. You can still jet to China and grab a $44 bottle of Pabst Blue Ribbon. Actually, it's Pabst's 1844. And it's not the PBR we used to drink along gravel roads at 3 a.m. It's aged in oak whiskey barrels, for crying out loud.
Tell me if you've heard this one. So a homeless guy walks into a bar that closed months ago and starts serving drinks. Then a newspaper guy walks in and does a story about his success. Then a cop walks in, find out there's no liquor license, and arrest the homeless guy. Awww, why the long face?
Ever seen 32,000 liters of spilled cream ale?
They have in Vernon, British Columbia. Again with those Canadians.
