Iron Maiden Launches Vintage Wine That Gets Better With Age, Then Slightly Worse, Then Terrible, Then Better and Better Again

Heavy metal legends Iron Maiden launched a limited edition vintage wine, “The Number of the Yeast,” which boasts widely different flavor profiles depending on its age.

Maiden’s collaborator, French winemaker Remy Beautreillis, is ecstatic about his latest creation.

“I would describe it as a full-bodied chardonnay with lots of character. It tastes great straight away, but as it matures, it gets deeper and richer… until about the eight or ninth year, when it dips noticeably. After that, it really takes a nosedive in the flavor department,” said Beautreillis. “About years 15 to 18, I’d rather drink my own piss, to be honest. Then, surprisingly, it starts getting better and better again. It’s a great investment.”

How does he know what 15 to 18 years tastes like if it's only launched now

Because he is a French winemaker and these guys know what they are talking about.

So, Maiden were in fact working on something. It just wasn't music.

I´ve heard other bands jumped the bandwagon and will release drinks.
Ozzy: The Ultimate Gin (so no Sherry Osbourne...)
Metallica: ...And Just Ice-tea for all

We really do need more non-alcoholic drinks here. How about The Ice and Sherbet Gula (Nightwish)?

Lest you be in any doubt that this is someone's idea of a joke (or indeed that said someone is not Janick's greatest fan ...)
