Racegoers at Cheltenham Festival will be capable to drink the “world’s most expensive” pint of Guinness.
Online bookmaker Fitzdares has launched a mix of the Irish stout and glowing wine that can value drinkers £20 a pint.
“Club Black Velvet” will combine the thick black beer equally with English fizz, with Fitzdares’ chief govt claiming he had concocted the beverage to have fun the brand new post-brexit deal for Northern Ireland, agreed at Windsor in late February.
William Woodhams additionally hopes that the high-cost libation could cease quaffers complaining in regards to the worth of an everyday pint of Guinness.
“Every year there is more and more controversy around the cost of Guinness at the Cheltenham Festival and frankly we were bored of it,” Woodhams stated to the Daily Star.
“So, to gently rib the complainers and celebrate recent political manoeuvres we have created the world’s most expensive – and finest – pint of the black stuff with a mix of premium English sparkling wine and Guinness brewed in Dublin.
“Isn’t it the perfect way to celebrate free trade between our two great nations and the Windsor protocol? The Irish visitors to Cheltenham can afford it with their strong currency. Yours for £20.”
Guinness, manufactured by business giants Diageo, was initially brewed in Dublin in 1759 and is without doubt one of the world’s most profitable alcohol manufacturers.
“Club Black Velvet” will likely be out there in Fitzdares Club on the racecourse and sister venues within the Cotswolds and upmarket London district Belgravia all through the race assembly.
The Cheltenham Festival runs from Tuesday 14 March to Friday 17 March.
