Never Gonna Give You up star teaming with Danish brewery, Mikkeller.
1980s pop star Rick Astley is teaming with Danish brewery Mikkeller to launch his own beer.
According to The Mirror, the Never Gonna Give You Up singer – who is currently enjoying a comeback with the release of his new album, 50 – has been working with the Copenhagen-based brewery on a pilsner type lager.
“Mikkeller beer is quite experimental and they’ve been sending me various bottles to sample,” Rick told the paper. “Some are quite fruity – one was a pear beer they make for a restaurant, but we’ve gone for a pilsner type lager.
“All I need now is a name for it.”
Rick would be joining a host of rock stars who boast their own beers. The most famous of which is probably Iron Maiden’s Trooper, although New Order, Queen and Motörhead have also produced their own beers.
