    Exclamation A brewery releases the world's most expensive alcohol...

    A brewery releases the world's most expensive alcohol...

    A popular Northside brewery's new drink has broken a record -- and the brewing experts say it wasn't even intentional! Urban Artifact's new fermented beverage, Astronaut Food Blackberry & Blueberry, is now the world's most expensive alcohol. “When we first came up with the idea for Astronaut Food, it wasn't about the price. Our best ideas come from separating ourselves from constraints, and, in doing so, the question became how we could possibly fit more fruit in a can,” said Kollmann Baker, one of the co-owners.

    Astronaut Food is a Fruit Tart made with over 1,000 lbs. of freeze-dried blackberries and blueberries. The brewery says it takes roughly 11 pounds of fresh fruit to produce one pound of freeze-dried fruit, leading to a whopping ingredients cost of $1,111 per barrel. The average beer costs around $75 per barrel, and wine is approximately $100. Most spirits are around $500 per barrel after distillation. It also also packs more fruit per drop than any other beverage in the world, and comes in at an astounding 15% ABV (Alcohol By Volume) due to the high sugar content of the fruit.

    “We love to explore, to pursue our creativity in innovative ways and reward the curious drinker," Kollmann Baker said. “We’ve brewed beers with yellow mombin, an exotic fruit that only grows in the Amazon Rainforest; with Durian, the world’s stinkiest fruit; and the previously illegal purple-hulled mangosteen.” Despite the high price of ingredients, the brewery only charges $30 for four eight-ounce cans.

    It was a joke. If you feel "trolled" by it, then I don't know to tell you.

    It wasn't a joke. You've been running abound inserting your politics into my non-political threads.

    I made a joke that had a political flavor to it. If you're that upset by it, then feel free to thread ban me or whatever. I won't complain.

    Not upset. Just stating the obvious.
