Gives new meaning to "Shock and Awe."

I think they had some help from NATO allies, but as per usual MO likely did the heavy lifting.
Great story.

When I was stationed there in the early 80s, the only Icelandic beer you could get was at the international air terminal. Beer couldn't be sold domestically due to an oversight in the law repealing prohibition. Alas, we had to drink hard liqueur off base. 😁

My understanding is that consumption is mild during the week, but everyone pours it on for Saturday, including even young teenagers.

You would think that beer from Iceland, with its fire and ice, would be a natural for international sales.
