I don't think I would buy one of those even if it wasn't $1000. a bottle.I like squirrels (I even have a feeder in my yard) and using these creature's carcasses to sell a beer is wrong.What's next? Why not a dog or a cat? It being roadkill doesn't make it O.K. either.
I can picture some CEO in his office ordering a lowly employee to go out and run over some more squirrels to satisfy demand.
F**K You,Brewdog.I won't be buying any more of your crappy,overpriced beers. Mad Rant

I heard about this Bullshit over at tastybrew. This is bullshit. It's a friggen eisbock first thing, so it's not really a true 55% brewed beverage. That's cheating. And to stuff the bottle into a fucking squirrel is just stupid. WTF are they trying to define with shit.. I wish the BJCP would shun the eisbock category, or at least put limits to prevent these schmucks from making a damn everclear strength beer.. WTF?!

Pretty dumb, and pretty disturbing. I know I'm not drinking out of a carcass any time soon. They could GIVE it to me and I might even turn it down.

I like BrewDog, but Judas, what the hell is this? There is no way in hell I am drinking a beer where I have to make out with a dead squirrel to get a sip (I rarely use a beer glass). The whole thing is just creepy. Personally, I think it is even creepier that they used road kill. I want fresh squirrels when I go mouth to mouth.

What's next? Are they going to make a 80% Assbock where some dude shows up at your house with a bottle sticking out of his ass?

I did notice that some of their other record breaking beers are now under $100. Tempted to drink a little bit of beer (yes, eisbock) history...

I might be tempted by that Assbock if a Playboy bunny delivered it.
