The Pilsner, a pale style lager first produced in 1842 Czech Republic gets a makeover from a danish brewery.
What the weird thing about this beer is? No it’s not that it’s a ‘craft beer’ from a giant distrubutor. It’s that to fertilise the hops, thousands of litres of 2015 Roskilde Music Festival go-er urine were used.
Yes, this ain’t no piss-take. Urine was used to fertilise the hops. We’ve all dared some drunk dude at the party drink piss, but you’re probably thinking who would actually drink piss intentionally?
Bear Grylls is one, the other is 60,000 people apparently.
Enter: the Pisner.
Why have they released 60,000 bottles of the shit (or should we say piss)? It’s 100% sustainable, seeing that party goers and festival heads aren’t disappearing anytime soon. Maybe ‘beercycling’, as the Danish brewery Nørrebro Bryghus coined it, will be the way of the amber future.
Attendee of Roskilde Festival, Anders Sjögren, says of the pee: ‘you don’t even notice’.
You can get your mits on one of 60,000 bottles of this brew and be the early adopter in your crew.
No, peeing in a bottle is not the same thing…
