I have a friend who is a fellow beer aficionado who told me about a brewery in Scotland that produced a beer that had such as high ABV that the government said it couldn't be produced because that technically categorized it as a liquor.

In retaliation the brewery came out with a beer named Nanny State that had such a low ABV that it couldn't be taxed by the government as alcohol. I have not been able to find the name of the brewery. Is anyone familiar with this story and/or the name of the brewery in question?

According to Beer Advocate the brewery is BrewDog.

Balmacassie Drive
Balmacassie Commercial Park
Ellon, Scotland, AB41 8BX
United Kingdom

There also seems to be a BrewDog in Ohio which also makes Nanny State beer. I think they are the same company.

  • Thank you Eric. I am familiar with BrewDog in the US, but didn't realize they are related to the Scottish brewery of the same name.
