La cerveza más potente.

BERLIN (Reuters) - A German brewer has concocted what he says is the world's strongest beer, a potent drink with an alcohol content of 25.4 percent that is served in a shot glass.

"Everyone who has tried it is enthusiastic. It tastes like a quirky mixture of beer and sherry," said Bavarian brewer Harald Schneider.

Schneider, who lives in southern Germany where beer is a tradition, said his beer fermented for 12 weeks for an alcohol content twice that of Germany's other strongest beers.

"People will only be able to drink two or three glasses, otherwise they'll drop like flies," he said.

Schneider expects the holders of the world's strongest beer, the Boston Beer Company, to put up a fight.

"I'm pretty sure the Americans have something up their sleeve."


Para los vagos que no quieran leer en inglés: Un cervecero germano dice que posee la cerveza más potente del mundo, con un contenido en alcohol de 25.4% y que es tan fuerte que se sirve en vasos de chupito. Para ello ha fermentado la cerveza por 12 semanas (3 meses).

A ver si descubro es que cervecería es exactamente por si hay que hacer una visita...
