The most famous brewer among climbers and the most famous climber among brewers - Daniil Briman, as part of the 7 Summits Club expedition in 2023, climbed to the summit of Mount K2 (Chogori). At the summit, he collected a flask of snow, which he brought to his brewery. Of course, the snow melted, but water was added when boiling the wort for imperial stout beer. We can safely say that Briman Imperial Stout 8611 is the only beer in the world brewed with the addition of snow from the summit of the most dangerous and hard-to-reach eight-thousander on the planet - the "Wild Mountain" K2. Limited edition. There will never be such beer again: Briman said that he will not go to K2 a second time :)

October 3. At 5 am we left for the gates of the national park. In the morning there was good visibility and while we were driving we were surrounded by stunning mountain landscapes. An hour and a half later we arrived at the beginning of the route. Here we changed into rubber boots, porters took our bags, and we went trekking.
The hike to the camp is 12 km and about 6 hours in time. The first part of the route is a real jungle: tall trees, ferns and mosses. Then the path goes along the river, underfoot there is grass and marshy soil. That's why we wear rubber boots, without them there is nowhere.
At the foot of the mountain we have a real base camp: large comfortable tents, toilets, this season we brought a dining tent and tables. The 7 Summits Club created the maximum possible comfort for the participants in such conditions!
After lunch, we discussed the ascent plan, practiced walking in ropes and working with equipment.
Group guides: Alexander Dorojukov and Svetlana Kotlyar.
