Cardsmiths Series 4 – Allsopp’s Arctic Ale #67 – Beryl 008/149

This Cardsmiths Series 4 card features Allsopp’s Arctic Ale, a brew created in 1852 for an Arctic expedition led by Sir Edward Belcher. Numbered 013/149, this limited-edition Beryl parallel captures a fascinating historical story—an ale designed to withstand subzero temperatures and sustain sailors during extreme voyages.

One of the few surviving bottles of Allsopp’s Arctic Ale sold on eBay in 2007 for $503,300, making it one of the most valuable beers ever sold. Illustrated by Aaron Mentzer, this collectible blends history, rarity, and artistic craftsmanship in classic Cardsmiths style.
