(

)

... that Australian microbrewery, Nail Brewing produced the most expensive beer in the world, using water melted from a block of Antarctic ice?

Too short. (972-word-long stub) Gotta do better than that to hit the requirement of 1500! Cheers, ☯ Bonkers The Clown \(^_^)/ Nonsensical Babble ☯ 12:53, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
- Have further expanded the article (over 4,400 characters) should make the minimum now.... Dan arndt (talk) 02:23, 6 March 2013 (UTC)
  - Citation Needed tag. Also, its not "4,400 characters"; it's "1,860". ☯ Bonkers The Clown \(^_^)/ Nonsensical Babble ☯ 12:15, 6 March 2013 (UTC)
    - Have added missing citation - I think you need to count again there is easily over 2,500 characters of readible prose. Dan arndt (talk) 07:12, 7 March 2013 (UTC)
There are 1860 characters (302 words) "readable prose size", according to the dyk checker. I added some references so your hook is completely referenced in the article. Star767 (talk) 21:16, 10 March 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks - I'm assuming that since the original reviewer hasn't responded & based on your comments the DYK nomination is ok... Dan arndt (talk) 02:49, 11 March 2013 (UTC)
  - No, because some of your references in the article don't exactly support the statements in the article. e.g. "The previous record holder was a freeze-distilled beer, The End of The World, produced by Scottish brewers, Brewdog."[1] and " On 23 March 2000 Norman Moore (Minister for Racing, Gaming and Liquor) officially opened Nail Brewing's first microbrewery at Bobby Dazzler's Ale House".[2] Am I missing it?

    - The first Antarctic Nail Ale sold for $800 on 3 November 2011, the previous most expensive beer was The End of the World which sold for $765 per bottle in July 2010, however on 19 November 2011 a bottle of the Antarctic Nail Ale sold at a charity auction for $1,850. The details of the sale of the Antarctic Nale Ale are clearly outlined in The Age article, the list of the world's most expensive beers are listed in this article. Does that make it any clearer?

It's been over a week without action. Needs a new reviewer to check that the issues raised have been adequately addressed.Dan arndt (talk) 03:16, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

I did some minor improvements to get this article over the DYK hump (moved a footnote that sourced two statements, added a stronger ref to the lead and removed one phrase that doesn't appear in the sources) not enough that I feel would limit my impartiality or require a new reviewer. The article passes the DYK criteria for dates, length and referencing with no signs of close paraphrasing or plagiarism so I would say it is good to go. Agne ^Cheese/^Wine 03:54, 23 March 2013 (UTC)
