Here's a bottle of Irish Mist; a very nasty whiskeyOzinasia wrote: ↑Wed Jan 26, 2022 10:37 pm just saying I mean I am sure they'll hope for sales in International hotels and tourist belt bars and nightclubs yeah ? Not many will walk yup to bar and ask for a can of krud or crud .. just passing a comment is all .. if I was opening a brewery or a new drink brand I wouldn't be calling it a name that in other cultures means crap or shit is all ... loads of better names around surly.. sheeeze
I once gifted a bottle to a German who commented that not only did it taste shit, but that "mist" in German is manure aka pigshit
Anyhow, don't drink the mist

Apparently Krud is that mythical monster/lion/dragon thing you see everywhere especially wats.
People of the world, spice up your life.

Silence, exile, and cunning.

This seems impossibly ill thought out. Marketing strategy?
