<p>According to <a href="https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/16315/53885/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Beer Advocate</a> the brewery is BrewDog.</p>
<p>Balmacassie Drive<br />
Balmacassie Commercial Park<br />
Ellon, Scotland, AB41 8BX<br />

<p>There also seems to be a <a href="https://shopusa.brewdog.com" rel="nofollow noreferrer">BrewDog</a> in Ohio which also makes Nanny State beer. I think they are the same company.</p>

Thank you Eric. I am familiar with BrewDog in the US, but didn't realize they are related to the Scottish brewery of the same name.

<p>I have a friend who is a fellow beer aficionado who told me about a brewery in Scotland that produced a beer that had such as high ABV that the government said it couldn't be produced because that technically categorized it as a liquor.</p>
<p>In retaliation the brewery came out with a beer named Nanny State that had such a low ABV that it couldn't be taxed by the government as alcohol. I have not been able to find the name of the brewery. Is anyone familiar with this story and/or the name of the brewery in question?</p>

I have a friend who is a fellow beer aficionado who told me about a brewery in Scotland that produced a beer that had such as high ABV that the government said it couldn't be produced because that technically categorized it as a liquor.

In retaliation the brewery came out with a beer named Nanny State that had such a low ABV that it couldn't be taxed by the government as alcohol. I have not been able to find the name of the brewery. Is anyone familiar with this story and/or the name of the brewery in question?

Balmacassie Drive

There also seems to be a [BrewDog](https://shopusa.brewdog.com) in Ohio which also makes Nanny State beer. I think they are the same company.
