The Rarest 6 Pack on Earth from the World’s Biggest Beer Run

BWS has gone on The World’s Biggest Beer Run across three continents to bring customers some of the most interesting beers ever tasted in the Rarest 6 Pack on Earth.

Rarest 6 Packs on Earth

Scouring over 50,000kms, 10,000kms more than a lap of the globe, BWS has collected beer from six unique breweries around the world, making them available at selected stores from Wednesday 18 October. Before setting off on the search, BWS set up their own Instagram polls for their mates.

In what is possibly the most elaborate beer run in history, the mission began at Japan’s one and only female run brewery and saw the team visit Bhutan, home of the world’s most dangerous runway, before trekking thousands of kilometres, across Mexico, Germany, Poland and Italy. The result is a collection of some of the most interesting beers ever tasted.

The beers included in the Rarest 6 Pack on Earth:

  • Minoh Brewery, Japan – Weizen: A non-pasteurised, award-winning drop. Japanese beer lovers can expect a premium brew that is both fruity and has notes of banana.
  • Namgay Artisanal, Bhutan – Bhutanese Red Rice Larger: This slightly roasted and sweet lager has a medium to full body. The bottle pours hazy amber with a small, frothy white head and overall clean character.
  • Schlenkeria, Germany – Aecht Ochlenferla Rauchbier: For those intrigued by a beer with a bacon-like smoke taste and after-taste, this drop boasts a toasty malt and light bitterness.
  • Stu Mostow Brewery, Poland – Crumble Sour IPA – A smooth and juicy, yet sour beer perfect for the warmer weather and rich food pairings like stew, venison gnocchi, and cinnamon crumble.
  • Hermano Republia, Mexico – Belgian Blonde Ale: Handcrafted and non-pasteurised, the light ale pours amber with a lightly hoppy, light bodied mouthfeel and sour citrus on the nose.
  • CR/AK, Italy– Barrel Aged Saison: Aged for seven months, the beer is 60% blended Scotch Whisky barrels and 40% in Caroni rum barrels.

The Rarest 6 Pack on Earth will be dropped exclusively from October 18th at selected some of the BWS stores. To track each beer-voyage, visit the BWS World’s Biggest Beer Run Hub here.
