You’d expect a lot from a bottle of beer costing $765. What you get is 55 percent alcohol — and served in a squirrel.
你可能会对765美元一瓶的啤酒充满期待吧。而你得到的则是55%的酒精浓度,盛在松鼠皮里。
According to Scottish firm BrewDog, “The End of History” is the “strongest, most expensive and most shocking beer in the world.”
苏格兰酿酒公司BrewDog称:“历史终点是全球最烈性、最昂贵且最骇人的啤酒。”
Just 12 bottles were made and the company has already sold out. They will be shipped out to buyers in the United States, Canada, Italy, Denmark, Scotland and England next week.
该公司酿制的区区12瓶“历史终点”已经抢购一空。下个星期,产品会送达美国、加拿大、意大利、丹麦、苏格兰和英国的买家。
The dead animals which were used to create the beers’ unusual appearance were four squirrels, seven weasels and a hare. All were roadkill, James Watt, co-founder of BrewDog, told msnbc.com.
Brewdog公司使用动物的死尸来制作该啤酒的怪异瓶身,用的是四只松鼠,七只黄鼬和一只兔子。该公司创始人詹姆斯·沃特告诉msnbc.com,所有的动物都是死于交通事故的。
The name of the blond Belgian ale is taken from the title of a book by philosopher Francis Fukuyama, “The End of History and the Last Man” which the company said had been chosen to imply “this is to beer what democracy is to history.”
这种淡黄色比利时啤酒的名称来源于哲学家弗朗西斯·福山(Francis Fukuyama)所著的《历史的终点与最后的人类》,该公司称用啤酒的名称来暗示书中的一句话:以此来酝酿民主对历史的意义(this is to beer what democracy is to history)。
Watt said the beer should be treated with care when drinking.
沃特说,喝这种啤酒时要悠着点儿。
“It tastes more like a whisky and you have got to handle it in that way as opposed to the way you would handle a normal beer,” he told me.
他说:“这酒喝起来更好像威士忌,你得把它当威士忌来喝,别当啤酒喝。
