Can’t Keep a Good Drug Down

Drinking and smoking — a match, apparently, made in heaven,
but not heavily advertised by world religions — is about to experience
a new, post-prohibitive reincarnation in the shape of NicoShot, a nicotine-laced
beer.

A German beer producer, Nautilus, has announced that it is currently testing
NicoShot, a beer containing 6.3 percent alcohol and three milligrams of
nicotine per bottle.

"Many countries have a smoking ban in bars and restaurants," a
Nautilus spokesperson said. "With our beer, you won’t have to go
outside for a quickie."

"While NicoShot can lessen cravings, it is not a ‘cure’
for smoking," the Nautilus spokesperson said. "But it can help
you make changes in your lifestyle without having to walk out of the
bar for a quick smoke to deal with sudden withdrawal symptoms."
