We’ll be in your town just as you're getting your hands on the new record.

Children Of Bodom and Fat Lizard Brewing Co. have launched a beer brewed with Lake Bodom water.

Introducing Lake Bodom Pre-Prohibition Lager - a modern take on a classic with a dark twist. Roasted malts and the noble Tettnanger hop make this the perfect beer for socializing, dinner, head banging or lakeside camping! Water used from the Lake Bodom puts this over the top and makes it so good you can bury a few in one go, so beware!

The beer goes on sale today in Finland; further details can be found here. Check out a video teaser:
