Ikea, haven to college students looking for cheap furniture and Swedish meatballs, has introduced a new product for the masses (at least in the UK): Ikea beer with a name just as unpronounceable as any of their other products.
ÖL LJUS is a lager and ÖL MÖRK is a dark lager, both will run you £1.75 and has a 4.7% ABV. Even better, the users over at social beer review website Untapped seem to have formed a consensus that Ikea beer is surprisingly tasty.
