Dogfish unveils 'survival beer' (knife and blanket included)

Dogfish Head's Sam Calagione has made a beer that seems perfect for his one-time Discovery Channel network-mate Bear Grylls:

Grylls, who hosts the "Man vs. Wild" show would approve: A "survival beer" dubbed It’s The End of the Wort As We Know It, made with a nutrient-heavy blend of superfoods.

The 9% ABV Belgian-style fruit ale is "chock full of essential amino acids, micronutrients and vitamins," the brewery announced Friday. It is made with a blend of "blueberries, acai and goji berries along with an assortment of ingredients including purple sweet potatoes, rose hips, chia seed, flax seed, spelt, oats and quinoa."

To top it off, the $45 750ml bottle comes wrapped in a solar blanket with a limited edition Dogfish-branded Swiss Army knife. (Beer with a free knife? What could go wrong?)

"Wort," which is limited to only 200 bottles, goes on sale Jan. 27 at 11 a.m. at the brewery (6 Cannery Village, Milton)

Calagione, who co-hosted Discovery Channel's "Brew Masters" in 2010, is not a doctor and did not play one on television, either.

“We are not making any health claims in association with this beer," he said in a statement announcing the beer's release. "We are merely sharing our brewing process and the culinary ingredients we chose for the recipe that are rich in alluring aromas and flavors.”
