Dan, known for his one-minute beer reviews, left fans in stitches with his reaction to tasting the ‘world’s strongest beer’ which has 75% alcohol content

A man left social media users in stitches after he tried the ‘world’s strongest beer‘ that felt like fire on his tongue.

Dan, who posts online as @1minutebeerreviews, is known online for his speedy reviews about some of the most unique beers from around the world. He has reviewed more than 1,900 bevvies so far from spicy beers to non-alcoholic ones.

But one beer, which has the highest alcohol content in the world, made him wretch and sweat – leaving fans howling with laughter in the comments. In the video, which has resurfaced because it’s International Beer Day (August 2), which has gained more than 1,600 likes, the bloke said: “One-minute beer review, beer number 1988. It’s my birth year, and you all seem to think I look like Eddie Hall – some here we go with the world’s strongest beer.”

He pulled out a bottle of Scottish Beithir Fire, which is 75% alcohol by volume from the 88 Brewery in Edinburgh. The 330ml bottle retails for £45.9 on their website.

It even comes with a warning label that recommends people “don’t exceed 35ml in one sitting.” Thewebsite notes: “As the warning label states, due to the extremely high alcohol content of the beer, it should be treated with respect and handled responsibly.”

But Dan couldn’t resist giving it a go as he poured himself a serving into a snake venom glass. “Let’s get it in the face,” he said as he knocked it back, but the beer was so strong it started burning immediately.

“It tastes like burning; my tongue is now numb,” he said, wiping the sweat from his brow with a tea towel and taking deep breaths. TikTok users were left in stitches over the review in the comments.

One user said: “Least I know what not to buy,” while a second commented: “That will get your night going.” Meanwhile, a third added: “That can’t be beer anymore… Surely….” Someone else wrote: “Have watched this half a dozen times! Can’t stop laughing…’I need to have a lie down!’.”

According to the 88 Brewery website, Scottish Beithir Fire takes two months to be brewed, and is blended with the “purest Scottish spirit to create. 75% liquid”. It continues: “After fermentation the beer is filtered 3 times removing any impurities.”
