The logo is unmistakable — three overlapping orbital spheres — but where the nucleus should be stands a beer bottle, the symbol of a small Dallas brewery called the Manhattan Project Beer Company that has ignited a firestorm across the Pacific for its nuclear weapons-themed beers.

In particular, a pink sour Gose-style beer called “Bikini Atoll,” has sparked ire in the Marshall Islands and beyond. Bikini Atoll and neighboring Enewetak Atoll, were the two primary Pacific Proving Grounds in the Marshall Islands where the United States tested 67 nuclear weapons between1946-1958, the equivalent of 1.6 Hiroshima-size explosions every day for twelve years.

In a statement, the Marshall Islands government-appointed National Nuclear Commission (NNC) described “a great deal of outrage” to learn of a beer bearing the name of this symbol of US nuclear testing.

“For American consumers of Bikini Atoll beer who live far away from the radiation and devastation created… by the United States, the imagery on the can associated with the Bikini Atoll can be entertaining, interesting, or perhaps even funny,” the NNC statement said
