骇人听闻:英酒厂用动物尸体当酒瓶
BrewDog, a Scottish brewery 1 famous for its stronger beer in UK , has declared that a new ale has been brewed 2 in the price of ￡500 (＄774) per bottle whose bottles have been used by bodies of dead of animals.
以酿制烈性啤酒闻名的英国苏格兰BrewDog酿酒厂日前宣布，他们将用完整动物尸体制作啤酒瓶，以每瓶500英镑(774美元)的价格出售。
Twelve bottles of The End Of History ale have been made and placed inside of seven dead stoats, four squirrels and one hare. The animals were not killed for bottling the new drink, with some having been killed on the roads. Some of the animals have been featured on a kilt and a top hat. With the alcohol of 55 percent volume, the End Of History has been claimed the world’s strongest beer, which is stronger than whisky and vodka.
BrewDog酿酒厂目前已经制成12个尸体酒瓶，包括7只白鼬、四只松鼠以及一只野兔。这些动物都不是人为杀死的，而是在公路上被撞死的。尸体酒 瓶上还围上极具英国特色的苏格兰方格呢短裙，动物头上还戴大礼帽。瓶中的烈性啤酒名为“终结历史”，酒精含量高达55%，比威士忌和伏特加更烈。
The brewery said, “the beer is to end all beers. It’s an audacious blend of eccentricity 3, artistry and rebellion, changing the general perception of beer.”The blond Belgian ale, infused with nettles 4 and juniper berries, was created by BrewDog’s brewers by freezing the liquid to separate water from the solution. The process was then repeated dozens of times, requiring hundreds of litres of beer to be reduced through the process to produce just enough for a 330ml bottle.
酿酒厂称：“这种啤酒将终结所有啤酒，它将怪异、艺术以及反叛融为一体，改变了啤酒的常规概念。” 这种金黄色的比利时啤酒，是用荨麻和杜松子酿造，通过冷冻将水分离出去。这一过程要重复数十次，数百升啤酒最后被浓缩为330毫升，然后装进尸体酒瓶中。
However, animal campaigners hit out at BrewDog’s latest offering. Ross Minett, campaigns director for the charity Advocates for animals, said that using shock tactics to get attention was terribly out of date and the modern approach was to respect animals as individual sentient 5 creatures, which would have much greater appeal with the animal-loving public.
动物保护主义者猛烈抨击BrewDog酿酒厂的做法，称使用这种令人吃惊的策略吸引公众注意力已经过时了，最现代的宣传方式应该是尊重每一个物种，这才是赢得公众好感的最有效方法。
