THE WONDEROUS SPLENDOR OF BEER

When you see a glass bottle’s crown cap lying on the ground, what comes to your mind first? Milk? Soft drink? Paint remover bottle? As for me, well, it’s simple: beer.



People often write, read, or produce tales and articles about the horrors of drinking beer. Beers are often considered as one of the beverages that when taken in incredulously, can put a drinker’s liver on the line. However, let us not dwell much into that common fact for now. Instead, let us see how beer surfaced as one of the most drank alcoholic beverages in the world. Theoatmeal.com sites 20 interesting things that about the wonders of beer. Let us now go through a few interesting things.

In 1814, a brewer tank containing 3,500 barrels of beer ruptured causing a tidal wave of beer through a London Parish. Two houses were demolished and nine people died. Even before the 20th century, beer has become widely known throughout Europe. It is a widespread universal drink firstly brewed by the Babylonians. Back then, if you brewed a bad batch, your punishment was to be drowned in it. Men adore beers the most. But how does beer actually affect a person’s brain?

It is a fact that when you drink faster than your body can process, you get drunk. Beer can mess with the brain as the alcohol hits a person’s system. If the alcohol reaches your medulla oblongata, a part of the brainstem which regulates activities like heart rate and breathing, a person’s life is in trouble.



Beer can be fun, perhaps, to drink because of the alcohol intake. But as drinkers, people should know the limitations in everything they take in so as to avoid any deadly consequences.
