A Perfect Pint? Justin Trudeau Now Has A Craft Beer Named After Him

Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau isn’t the only world leader to get a craft beer named after him though: US President Donald Trump and German Chancellor Angela Merkel get those boozy honours as well.

Talk about a boozy tribute. Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau now has a fancy craft beer named after him. The Trudeau magnum pale ale is brewed at the Beer Theater, a brewery in the western Ukrainian city of Lviv. Interestingly, the Canadian PM isn’t the only world leader with a craft beer named after him: US President Donald Trump and German Chancellor Angela Merkel do as well.

The brew features a caricature of Mr Trudeau wearing a blue suit and boxing gloves, with a red “L” for his Liberal Party. Peeking out behind him is Defence Minister Harjit Singh Sajjan, who, the brewery says, “demonstrates all diversity in Trudeau’s government team.” Canada’s foreign minister Christina Alexandra “Chrystia” Freeland also makes an appearance. She is of Ukrainian descent.

On its official website, craft brewery Pravda calls Mr Trudeau “Leader of the Liberal Party, beloved by women, and kind of sex symbol.”

“Trudeau is known for his sympathy for coloured socks and marijuana, in addition to supporting the struggle for women’s rights, and the LGBT movement,” the website says.
