BrewDog’s Olympic beer bites

Fraserburgh craft brewery BrewDog has unleashed an Olympic beer “containing at least fifty per cent of your recommended allowance of sarcasm”.

Never Mind the Anabolics contains a list of performance enhancing ingredients – all of which are banned for use by professional athletes. The new beer contains a baffling list of substances including creatine, guarana, matcha powder, kola nut, Gingko and steroids.

James Watt, co-founder of BrewDog, said: “It seems a beer laced with performance enhancing ingredients isn’t actually illegal, but it is definitely frowned upon. However, we don’t think Never Mind the Anabolics is as absurd and obnoxious as the tenuous sponsorship deals from fast food chains and global mega breweries that seem to define the people’s games.”
