Brennivín is related to other Scandinavian spirits, it is very similar to the Danish Akvavit. It resembles The Norwegian Linie and Swedish Aquavit. The steeping of herbs in vodka to create Schnapps is a long-held folk tradition in all Scandinavian countries. Brennivín is featured in the Halldor Laxness novel Íslandsklukkan (Iceland's Bell). 02:32, 18 March 2006 user:Dktrfz

Dose anyone have a good picture of the bottle when it had the human scull on it? As seen in Kill Bill http://steinninn.is/bioflokkar.htm --Steinninn 15:50, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure it was Black Death vodka featured in Kill Bill. Also, Brennivín may be associated with alcoholics, but having worked on occasions for Vínbúð for a few years, I can't say there appears to be anything to it. Karlgun 22:54, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
