Cheeky brewer mocks Eurocrat Donald Tusk with ‘Special Place in Hell’ beer set to be served to MPs
MPS could be served an ale named ‘Special Place in Hell’ in their Commons bar later this year – mocking EU chief Donald Tusk.
The House of Commons has agreed to consider it for its guest ale spot in the MPs’ notorious Strangers’ bar for the autumn – coinciding with the delayed October 31 Brexit date.
Mr Tusk sparked uproar earlier this year when he attacked Brexiteers by saying: “I’ve been wondering what that special place in hell looks like for those who promoted Brexit without even a sketch of a plan how to carry it out safely.”
Brewers in arch-Brexiteer Mark Francois’s constituency made the special ale named after the infamous barb.
Mr Francois last night invited Mr Tusk, French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Angela Merkel to the Posh Boys microbrewery in his Wickford constituency to sample the 4 per cent ale.
He said: “I really would be delighted to invite the European Council to my Constituency to show them not only can we brew great ale, but that we want to live in a free country!”
If it meets the House of Commons tasting test it could be on tap from the autumn.
