Ukrainian brewery is now making beer that’s easy to turn into Molotov cocktails

The Ukrainian government provided instructions on how to make Molotov cocktails

A Ukrainian brewery is appealing for donations so they can continue turning their branded bottles into Molotov cocktails.

Pravda Brewery in the Western regions of Ukraine has appealed on Instagram for donations after closing its doors due to the conflict that started five days ago. Since Russia invaded Ukraine on Thursday morning, Pravda has been aiding citizens by arming them with explosive fire bottles.

“Our freedom is at stake,” the brewery wrote to their 15k followers. “Many of you have written comments about improving the design of cocktails. Thanks! Remember – we are not a big but professional brewery and we do a lot of research!

“Not just a theory – many of us went through the bloody street protests of 2014, which overthrew the ex-president, who is now hiding in Russia. Practice helps!”

Pravda also revealed that their Molotov’s come in a special kind of beer bottle, the label reading “Putin Huilo” which translates to “Putin is a d***head.”

Their website details the beer’s invention which they say is “about the guilty person of this cruel war, having occupied the East of Ukraine and invaded Crimea; about his aggressive ambitions and Russian imperialism greed that threatens Europe and the whole world order, established after World War II.”

If fire in bottles with strongly worded branding wasn’t enough, Pravda also sent a case of it to the Kremlin in Moscow, reports Euro News.

As well as advising its citizens to take shelter and stay away from windows, the Ukrainian government has issued a how-to manual on making Molotov cocktails.

The National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine shared the instructions to their social media, writing on Twitter: “While our partners load planes, cars and cars with weapons for Ukraine, we are preparing our branded ‘brotherly’ gift for the Russian bastard.
