NEW DELHI: A beverage named after criminal Osama Bin Laden has become popular in the UK, leading to the company having to temporarily shut down its website and disconnect mobile devices due to high demand, according to the BBC.
” We’ve woken up the last couple of evenings with thousands and thousands and thousands of alerts”, i- user Mitchell said.
Mitchell Brewing Co., which also produces Kim Jong Ale and Putin Porter, sells the liquor titled Osama Bin Lager.
” They’re all mouth- in- face names – a kinder view on some unpleasant dictators”, Mitchell told BBC.
Millions of people have seen a picture of the beer that was posted on social media and named for the late former al-Qaeda chief who passed away in 2011.
Talking about the possible dangers of naming the beverage after a criminal, Mitchell said,” As far as I’m informed, no one’s been offended, but I’m certain there is someone out there”.
” I think there’s often a risk of someone being offended”, inc- owner and Luke’s family Catherine Mitchell said.
