Some Facts from the web
I found an interesting article from auto.hindustantimes.com with the following text-
The limited edition beer is brewed in Germany and comes in a box containing three stylish Cybertruck-inspired bottles. Each bottle carries 330 ml of beer and the whole set costs around $97 per pack.
Clearly, it is not very affordable, but considering that it is a special edition beer from the world's most popular electric vehicle manufacturer, there might be some takers.

Tesla claims that the GigaBier is rated at five per cent ABV and is made with water, malted barley, yeast and Cyberhops. The automaker-turned-beer brewer has said that the Tesla GigaBier can be ordered in some select European countries but not elsewhere. Also, one consumer can buy only one pack per order.
The EV manufacturer has described the alcoholic beverage on its official website by saying that the GigaBier has been designed to emulate the form of Cybertruck while honouring the 500-year tradition of German Reinheitsgebot beermaking. "Enjoy this limited edition pilsner-style beer brewed in Berlin with our exclusive strain of Cyberhops and notes of citrus, bergamot, and sweet fruit. Each bottle features a seamless gloss black sleeve with a glow-in-the-dark Giga watermark. Prost!" said Tesla in its official post.
Interestingly, brewing beer was not something Tesla had done suddenly, as it has previously hinted about such a project. Tesla CEO Elon Musk himself teased the beer in late 2021 during the Giga Fest event at the Berlin Gigafactory. Also, Tesla launched a limited edition tequila a few years ago, which was sold in two batches, and both were sold out in less than an hour.
Other sources say
The EV maker’s beer was teased by Elon Musk himself in late 2021 during the Giga Fest event at the Berlin Gigafactory when Tesla’s CEO also said they would build a train station and have graffiti murals throughout the facility.
A few years ago, the Fremont-based marque launched a limited edition tequila which was sold in two batches and both were gone in less than an hour.
The American electric car brand isn’t the only one dipping its toes into the world of food and beverages. Volkswagen has been making its own currywurst at the Wolfsburg factory since 1973 and in recent years, the German manufacturer has sold more sausages than cars. The meat-based product even has its official part number.

But how does it taste??
At the launch of the Gigafactory Berlin project, Musk announced that Tesla would be making its own beer. Today, Tesla officially launched its “Tesla GigaBier”:
The taste of the limited drink contains notes of citrus and bergamot.
Said by gadgetonus.com
Tesla claims that the beer is brewed in Berlin and “pays homage to the 500-year-old tradition of German brewing.”
Does anyone tried it?
At Reddit at "r/TheBrewery" they discuss "Any of you tried Cyberhops yet?"
All the money in the world can't buy the ability to produce a great beer. But as the saying goes, a fool and his money...
...which, ironically in this case will apply to both the manufacturer AND the consumer. Actually, that's nothing new to craft beer so I'll shut the fuck up now.
Do I like to get this beer?
To be honest, from the perspective of beer lover inside me, I would get a few boxes of Westvleteren instead of 3 pils beer from Berlin....
BUT marketing wise, this is a cool idea and the bottle looks nice. So it is more a product for collector than for people who like a good beer.
For sure, this will be a nice tasting and well created beer, but it is still a pils...
You better get a few of this one
Have a look the the trappistwestvleteren.be
Where you get the a box Trappist Westvleteren 12 for €48.80 in a lovely Wooden crate
