What started off as a joke between our buddy Eli, from Banklocater.com, and us has now turned into a reality! A German brewery, named Nautilus, may soon be introducing a nicotine beer to the market. The new nicotine brew apparently has a whopping 6.3% alcohol content along with 3 milligrams of nicotine per 250ml bottle. At these current ratios, three nicotine beers would be roughly equivalent to a standard pack of cigarettes.

The company states that the nicotine beer called “Nicoshot” is actually intended to reduce cravings. The company describes the lager as “cigarette satisfaction in a beer without the smoke”.  Ireland may be the first to receive Nicoshot in stores and the rest of the UK may be soon to follow. If most of Europe embraces this new nicotine beer we may even end up with Nicoshot or a version of it in USA stores soon!
