I mean sure, but does the OP even lift? He strikes me as the type of guy that owns zero articles of UnderArmor

I guess these beers are brewed for hype, generally. Seems to be out of style, these days.


I think it was the brewdog beers that were found to be lower than advertised. Not sure it really matters since I think the policy here is to just use the advertised numbers for ABV and IBU.


Bobby, the Brewdog beers are pretty confirmed ABV wise. The problem was Brewmeister, another Scottish brewery, that made Armageddon and Snake Venom. The first one isn’t near the declared ABV and the other one is spiked with hard liquor.

Trust me, BrewDog aren’t stupid enough to try to cheat in this kind of stuff. They care too much about their reputation.


I must be remembering these things wrong (lots of beers consumed since 2012). I just remember Brewdog vs the place in Germany. Forgot about the other place that was in on the game.

Due to Brewmeister admitting they added pure alcohol to meet the 67% ABV (or whatever it was) isnt it Koelschip’s Start The Future at 60%? Unrated so far on this site from what i can see.

The koelschip beers have alcohol added as well.

Dont know about now, but im pretty sure on of the bismark years back was tested independently ay 32 not the 40. But definitely no where near as bad as the brewmeister fiasco
