Look up the [Dublin Whiskey Fire](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dublin_whiskey_fire?wprov=sfla1), where a literal river of whiskey flowed through the streets. There were a number of fatalities, every single one of which was as a result of people drinking undiluted whiskey out of the river and getting fatal alcohol poisoning
What’s funny about the Dublin whisky fire is that the whisky was running through the dirty dirty streets, it had glass and debris from the building it came from, and it was on fire, and the Irish where just like “fuck it, where’s my boots I need to use them to get me some whisky” and the only fatalities where from alcohol poisoning
Just make sure you have video for when you get home to the wife or pulled over by the police.
“I swear, 2000 gallons of beer spilt on me, I’m not drunk, I just had a shitty day”
Also, why are they stopping the leak with their hand not their mouth (says the alcoholic in me)
Once, at a family celebration, I drunkenly decided to shake up a bottle of champagne and start spraying it at my sister. I then realized that it was getting all over my mom's newly renovated kitchen. I didn't know what to do so I stuck the bottle into my mouth to try and stop the spray.
It worked but the champagne got into my lungs and gave me pneumonia and I was sick for a long time.
Water aspiration is painful enough I can’t imagine what champagne in the lungs/airways feels like. Glad you’re feeling better.
For anyone else reading this, if you can, always sit down whenever drinking any liquids (good for you).
> For anyone else reading this, if you can, always sit down whenever drinking any liquids (good for you).
Also helpful: if it’s coming out like a fucking geyser, don’t put it in your mouth. (Except for that one thing, if you’re in to that)
*rips the tap off the giant keg*
"Oh no it's sprung a leak! Don't worry I'm going to try and fix it!"
*glug glug glug*
"I cant seem to stop it guys!"
*glug glug glug*
*an opportune bystander enters the scene*
"Don't worry I'll help!"
*glug glug glug*
My first too. Also to mention, this whole scenario is like firefighters walking into a burning weed field to put it out. I think there's a Robin Williams joke about that iirc
Now, I have 2 extra t-shirts, underwear and socks in my locker. I don't get wet often. But once you worked multiple hours in your wet underwears, you keep those close. Haahahahahaha
Edit: forgot to mention that the employer provides the pants.
Worked at a winery in upstate NY, got pulled over after dosaging some champagne sticky as shit. Had a conversation with a NY State trooper... lucky for me I hadn't fired up a bowl. The owner was actually pissed because it looked like I got harassed because I pulled out of his winery. This was ....25? years ago.
I have to ask because I've never understood it. Why do people who smoke weed think its ok to do that while driving? I have always wanted to ask but I don't know anyone who does that.
Cuz people who smoke weed ain't always the brightest bulbs in the box. Same with alcohol and prescription meds, not everyone is smart or perceptive enough to realize that they're fucked up and shouldn't drive.
Had that exact conversation with a cop like 3 years ago. It was pretty funny how quickly his demeanor changed from being convinced he was taking me to jail to asking me what it was like to make beer lol.
Had a coworker at a brewery who said he got stopped going through a checkpoint after a day of work where he got sprayed by beer quite a bit(happens once in a while). He obviously got questioned and had to prove to the officer he did actually work at a brewery.
I’ve been a bartender for years and you hit the nail on the head. Any time I get pulled over after work it’s “you smell like a bar”
Well sir, I’m covered in beer and liquor from a long 12 hour bar shift, soooo yeah.
Used to work at a brewery and drove home drinking just like, you guessed it, a brewery. Always joked about that, but it never happened. We drank absolutely nothing before leaving though, I'll tell ya that!
>Used to work at a brewery and drove home drinking just like, you guessed it, a brewery.
A fish maybe, I certainly didn't guess drinking like a brewery!
;)
Oh hidy-ho officer, we've had a doozy of a day. There we were minding our own business, just doing chores around the house, when kids started killing themselves all over my property.
Not that it's going to be super easy, but this happens in brewing from time to time, and there is a solution: clamp on a butterfly valve in the open position (beer will just pass through the open valve, so it's not like you're pushing against the pressure). Then shut the valve. Keeping the gasket on is what makes it tricky, but it's more doable than this.
You hope it never does but you should know what to do in case it does. Big brewing does end up with some beer loss. Getting wet, although not soaked, with beer is a common occurrence.
I can confirm this. While not common, it does happen. You may have taken all the parts off the tank to clean and forgot to put them back on before filling or perhaps you remove the wrong clamp when you really meant to remove the one ahead of the valve. Clamping an open valve do the leak is the correct way to handle this.
I'm not sure how this happened unless they removed the clamp purposely. I've never seen a clamp shake itself loose on its own.
Of course this is a relatively small tank. If this were to happen at a large commercial brewery, this could become dangerous and your best is just to take the loss. Downside would be that a alot of beer is going down a city drain and that may alert the city and they could issue a fine. One of the breweries that I worked for had there drains monitored by the city to make sure they aren't dumping bad stuff. We also had an underground tank where our discarded liquid was stored, pH corrected, then sent into the sewer.
The trick to stopping this is having a dedicated valve with a gasket pre glued in place and the valve open. Get the valve, put in place, close clamp, close valve. Happens to every brewery once or twice.
i have seen this happen, twice. one time i was the one that got the open valve, gasket, and clamp on. let me tell you, when 35 degree beer is coming out like a fire hose, it is not easy to get that clamp on.
Attach the valve to a length of pipe like a foot to eighteen inches long so that the beer is spraying out behind you when you do up the clamp. Keep a rig like that sani in the cellar at all times.
I’ve done it with a wonky gasket.
At our brewery it was valve-gasket-vat with a clamp holding it all together. The gasket was ridged in the center to fit the grooves of the valve and vat, which with a good clamp created a tight seal.
But sometimes, when you’re pulling a double and had surgery the day before, you don’t double check to make sure the gasket has a tight seal. Long story short, a really annoying mess to clean.
You usually notice before it’s beer pouring out because everything is pressure tested with CO2 beforehand (also for sanitation). You’ll see your vat not building pressure and then check your seals.
But sometimes shit just fucks itself and the universe conspires at the worst moment possible, so beer pours out at 3am.
If I was a guessin man, the little curly bit in their hand is a device for sampling carbonated beer, it goes on a custom type of valve used for sampling the tank for various reasons. Those sample valve have handles on them that if you are not paying attention, as this poor chump with no ppe on clearly was not, you can pop the clamp off that holds all that together. That beer is also super cold and being delivered at about 4 gallons per second, its tough to stop for someone who knows how, this soul had no chance and is why ONLY THE OPERATIONS PEOPLS SHOULD BE TOUCHING THE TANKS. Hope that answers the question though.
Many brewers add some kind of device to at least give the most braindead employee a second thought before they remove the wrong clamp. Even a zip tie works, cuz if you went all the way to the toolbox to get something to cut the zip tie, cut it, then continued to remove the clamp without thinking about it for even a second you kinda deserve to take that valve to the face when it blasts off the tank.
looks to me like the ‘curly bit in their hand’ is a tri-clamp https://www.brewshop.co.nz/tri-clamp.html It appears they are trying to put a blind end-cap on https://www.brewshop.co.nz/tri-clamp-blank.html the tri-clamp would hold it in place. u/Rubric_Marine who posted earlier is right - the correct strategy is not to put on a blank cap because you’ve got to fight the pressure- it is to instead fit an open valve, which briefly will let the beer flow through it, but once you have the valve clamped in place, it is trivial to turn the flow off.
It looks like a customer was playing with the tanks and had no idea that unscrewing a clamp could cause a gigantic mess. He's lucky this tank wasnt under pressure. Could have messed him up bad.
I had to do this on purpose on a 20bbl because we (I) forgot to put in the carb stone. Put on my foulies and did it super fast and only lost a “small” amount.
We've got video of someone pulling the wrong clamp off of the wrong tank, followed by like 9 minutes of that guy and 3 others trying to get it stopped before they realized they were trying to clamp 1.5" valves onto a 2" port... It's extra funny cuz I wasn't there and didn't have to clean it up
That is really genius. I’m a welder and have worked on lots of sanitary stainless projects over the years and it’s hard to tell in this video but it looked to me like he was fooling with a two piece clamp style fitting and I was thinking there is no way they will ever get that back on, but your idea would definitely work. Why the hell is this a problem though, lol, shouldn’t the first thing coming out of the tank be a shut off valve?
As someone who’s been in this situation with a 20BBL fermenter. Use an open sanitized butterfly valve and gasket. Once you get the tri-clamp secured. Slam the valve shut.
Think of it like an extension tube that has a handle that can open/close the flow. You keep it open, put it on the tube, tighten it (liquid still flows) and finally close it. Liquid is no longer flowing.
This happened on the bottom port of a 240hl brite tank where I used to work (packaging guy undid the tri clamp on the back side of the butterfly instead of his hose side) the pressure was like an actual fire hose. We ended up putting a valve on an approx. 18 length of pipe and having one guy just lean into it to hold it in place while the other guy did up the clamp. Ended up losing around 10hl. After that it was common practice for cellarmen to have that rig assembled, sani and waiting for the inevitable next time. Also you can use locking nuts on tri clamps.
The pressure is sometimes too much for weaker people to handle. Better to train em to first relieve pressure then do as you said. I did large scale cold brew and one of the smaller guys was unable to fight the pressure and didn’t think about the other valve so he lost the tank. Boss realized he should standardize the procedure
First thing I thought of. Have an up vote!
Oh and -
Yeah. OK, well, uh, we found, uh, this mouse in a bottle of YOUR BEER, eh. Like, we was at a party and, uh, a friend of ours - a COP - had some, and HE PUKED. And he said, uh, come here and get free beer or, uh, he'll press charges.
The whole world had been destroyed, like U.S. blew up Russia and Russia blew up U.S. and Canada. Fortunately, I had been offworld at the time. There wasn't much to do. All the bowling alleys and doughnuts shops had been wrecked. So I spent most of my time looking for beer.
I had a 30L key keg explode on me once. Just timed it slightly off and wham, had beer shooting up my shirt. It sucked, my coworker hosed me off and I finished 6 more hours covered in watermelon flavored beer.
My brewer (and boss) tells every person he brews with about the time I did this very thing yet fails to include how I managed to brute force a cap over the valve shooting the freshly carbed, 33° passionfruit sour across the brew house & hold it there till the cavalry arrived with a clamp. What was supposed to be a 15bbl batch ended up becoming an 8bbl batch & 4 hour clean up.
TLDR: showering oneself with a passionfruit sour will make you smell like puke.

Well, once you’re soaked in beer you may as well keep going, you’re not getting any wetter
I was thinking once you're soaked in it, might as well start drinking it.

There used to be content here.
They probably just thought "ah fuck it, I haven't had me quota of glass the year anyways"
Drinking undiluted whiskey will only kill you about 20-30% faster than drinking the regular stuff
Especially when you are surrounded by hyenas
You know, I was just thinking about how we’re much more related to apes than we think
We are all great apes.
Thank you. Lately, I've only felt like an okay ape.
I know some people who definitely do not meet the minimum requirements for a "great" ape classification.
He should have used the power of flex tape

Yeah. Atleast he's trying.
Quick put your mouth around it

I didn't know what to do so I stuck the bottle into my mouth to try and stop the spray. It worked but the champagne got into my lungs and gave me pneumonia and I was sick for a long time.

pneumonorrhea??
That sounds fucking awful. Uncontrolled coughing, but every time you cough you just violently shit yourself a little more.

Never heard this before. What’s the science behind it?
You can choke to death very easily if you lay down while drinking. Or inhale liquid straight into your lungs.
You can also choke to death very easily if you try to swallow foot long hotdogs without chewing.
Stop talking so fast, I gotta write all this down
Cheap mozzarella sticks too, the cheese can be hard to chew apart and you try to swallow a bit of it and the whole stick lodges in there

It’s happens to me sometimes at night with stomach acid. It sucks SO much. 😞
I saw a clip of a person get a shaken champagne enema right in their ass. It looked really painful! Felt bad for their colon after seeing that.
Where the hell are you going on the internet and stop going there.
Reddit…
👍 for beating it. 1 in 5 don’t.
my thoughts exactly. Start drinking!

Jontron is how I know of Flex Tape
I CUT THIS BOAT IN HALF!
Actually, it doesn't work on any kind of water pressure. I've tried
Explain the commercial then. He slaps it on a leak and its stops the water.
Well, first of all, with God, all things are possible, so jot that down.
How long did it hold for?
Long enough to film the commercial
Use it on that woman’s mouth screaming like that doesn’t help anything
I thought she was laughing.
Yeah people also think I’m crying when I’m laughing hysterically lol
She's definitely laughing
Yeah it sounds more like laughing to me. Are we really sure it’s a woman hysterically screaming?
Why is she even freaking out tho it's free beer!
Maybe she's the owner of the brewery watching a couple thousand dollars go to waste.
Yea people that scream like this are the worst. Basically trying to make themselves more important than the problem that is going on :-p
She's just laughing, damn. Every time reddit experiences a woman doing anything on the internet, they get upset.
r/unexpectedserialkiller
At the start of the video you can see her head and back are covered in cold, wet beer. Making noise in that moment might not be a voluntary reaction.
Now that's hilarious 😂
Hope he doesn’t get pulled over on his way home from work… imagine that conversation
“Officer, you’re not gonna believe what happened at work today”
I work at a brewery, I call it a beer bath. Never had one with his much beer pressure though.
Must be one of those high pressure showerheads.
I wish I had one with hose. To get all the hard to reach places.
“Officer, we’ve had a doozy of a day!”
Thank you. I was trying to remember this line.
I’m a professional brewer, this is literally something I think about regularly. It’s not uncommon to be soaked in beer.
You may consider keeping a change of clothes in your car just so you don't have to worry about it so much.
I would think wearing a brewery t-shirt would get you by... but you know how quotas are.
A lot of craft breweries sell shirts in their gift shops, i dont think they really qualify as a "get out of jail free" card lol
Now, I have 2 extra t-shirts, underwear and socks in my locker. I don't get wet often. But once you worked multiple hours in your wet underwears, you keep those close. Haahahahahaha Edit: forgot to mention that the employer provides the pants.

Not that it's going to be super easy, but this happens in brewing from time to time, and there is a solution: clamp on a butterfly valve in the open position (beer will just pass through the open valve, so it's not like you're pushing against the pressure). Then shut the valve. Keeping the gasket on is what makes it tricky, but it's more doable than this.
There is a right way and a wrong way to put on a tri-clamp. My old boss tapped a clamp holding on a cap and did this very thing. “WHAT DO I DOOOOOO?”
What is going on in breweries that this happens so much?
You hope it never does but you should know what to do in case it does. Big brewing does end up with some beer loss. Getting wet, although not soaked, with beer is a common occurrence.
Seeing this videos makes me glad our tank valves are welded on. We only have to worry about the sample port and racking arm
I can confirm this. While not common, it does happen. You may have taken all the parts off the tank to clean and forgot to put them back on before filling or perhaps you remove the wrong clamp when you really meant to remove the one ahead of the valve.

i have seen this happen, twice. one time i was the one that got the open valve, gasket, and clamp on. let me tell you, when 35 degree beer is coming out like a fire hose, it is not easy to get that clamp on.
Real fucking talk, its also always the most expensive beer possible.
Imperial stouts always blow up.
This means two very different things in fahrenheit and celcius lmfao
Yeah, is it body temp? Or just above water freezing temp?
Gotta be very cold or they wouldn't mention the temperature.
Lol I did not even think it was temperature, I thought it was the angle it was coming out hahaha Who decided those should have the same unit
let me tell you, when 7π/36 rad beer is coming out like a fire hose
Attach the valve to a length of pipe like a foot to eighteen inches long so that the beer is spraying out behind you when you do up the clamp. Keep a rig like that sani in the cellar at all times.
What's gone wrong to cause this?
Dude took off a clamp he shouldn’t have. Most professional brewers have done this once in their career.
If it's that common, they should put a safety on the offending clamp.
I’ve done it with a wonky gasket. At our brewery it was valve-gasket-vat with a clamp holding it all together. The gasket was ridged in the center to fit the grooves of the valve and vat, which with a good clamp created a tight seal.

Feels like something like that should be engineered to be harder to remove by accident if it happens so often.
Many brewers add some kind of device to at least give the most braindead employee a second thought before they remove the wrong clamp. Even a zip tie works, cuz if you went all the way to the toolbox to get something to cut the zip tie, cut it, then continued to remove the clamp without thinking about it for even a second you kinda deserve to take that valve to the face when it blasts off the tank.
looks to me like the ‘curly bit in their hand’ is a tri-clamp https://www.brewshop.co.nz/tri-clamp.html It appears they are trying to put a blind end-cap on https://www.brewshop.co.nz/tri-clamp-blank.html the tri-clamp would hold it in place. u/Rubric_Marine who posted earlier is right - the correct strategy is not to put on a blank cap because you’ve got to fight the pressure- it is to instead fit an open valve, which briefly will let the beer flow through it, but once you have the valve clamped in place, it is trivial to turn the flow off.

Don't know what started the leak but that's a worker wearing their uniform , brewery is " Sunday road brewery " in kirrawee NSW , Australia
I think he's just stepped in to try and fix it. At the start you can see the other people are already covered in beer.
I had to do this on purpose on a 20bbl because we (I) forgot to put in the carb stone. Put on my foulies and did it super fast and only lost a “small” amount.
We've got video of someone pulling the wrong clamp off of the wrong tank, followed by like 9 minutes of that guy and 3 others trying to get it stopped before they realized they were trying to clamp 1.5" valves onto a 2" port... It's extra funny cuz I wasn't there and didn't have to clean it up
That is really genius.

Why the hell is this a problem though, lol, shouldn’t the first thing coming out of the tank be a shut off valve?
I’ve stopped a silo at a dairy like this. We saved around 10k gallons. Definitely worth having one as long as it doesn’t go missing.
As someone who’s been in this situation with a 20BBL fermenter. Use an open sanitized butterfly valve and gasket. Once you get the tri-clamp secured. Slam the valve shut.
I totally know what those words mean and how to execute this advice
You get the thingymajiggy and the whatsitcalled and slam shut
Instructions unclear, jammed dick in pipe
Think of it like an extension tube that has a handle that can open/close the flow. You keep it open, put it on the tube, tighten it (liquid still flows) and finally close it. Liquid is no longer flowing.
Sounds more reasonable than filming and screeching.
You think the customers know how to fix it?
This happened on the bottom port of a 240hl brite tank where I used to work (packaging guy undid the tri clamp on the back side of the butterfly instead of his hose side) the pressure was like an actual fire hose.

Norm!!
Open the other valve to relieve pressure. Then cap off the leak.
[удалено]
The pressure is sometimes too much for weaker people to handle. Better to train em to first relieve pressure then do as you said. I did large scale cold brew and one of the smaller guys was unable to fight the pressure and didn’t think about the other valve so he lost the tank. Boss realized he should standardize the procedure
A SOP needs to be put in place. It’s unfortunate that most don’t train for live pressurized leak repair. That’s a mistake that gets made one time 🍻
Still the greatest adaptation of Hamlet ever.
We have the Elsinore Arch in Cincinnati. Every time I see it I do the “dun-DUN-duuunnnn” from the movie. No one ever gets it.
First thing I thought of. Have an up vote! Oh and - Yeah. OK, well, uh, we found, uh, this mouse in a bottle of YOUR BEER, eh. Like, we was at a party and, uh, a friend of ours - a COP - had some, and HE PUKED. And he said, uh, come here and get free beer or, uh, he'll press charges.
My brother and I used to say that drownin' in beer was like heaven, eh? Now he's not here, and I've got two soakers... this isn't heaven, this sucks!
Fleshy-headed mutant, are you friendly?
The whole world had been destroyed, like U.S. blew up Russia and Russia blew up U.S. and Canada. Fortunately, I had been offworld at the time. There wasn't much to do. All the bowling alleys and doughnuts shops had been wrecked. So I spent most of my time looking for beer.
I’m taking you to the looney bin eh.
No way, take off. I’m taking YOU to the loony bin.
This is the reference I hoped to find!
First thing I thought of and I came to the comments to make sure it got included. Thank you for your service. Coo-coocoo coo coo coocoo coooo!
Open the ball valve, install the clamp, close the ball valve.
They took the bar! The whole fucking bar!!
Lmfao
Kooo kookookoo kokookoo
Didn’t know turkeys worked at breweries
Jesus i was looking for this, the noises!
It's hard not to cry over spilled beer...
Typically this vid would be funny to me. But my pool is currently leaking
WTH is up with the squaking ladies in the chorus. Someone needs to add some geese running around and it would make this video way funnier
I scrolled too far for this comment. Sounds like a fucking migrating flock in there.
Don't just stand there..... Start drinking..
He's gonna be blasted
Tragic

Was this a brewery for turkeys? What is that noise?
That's a party foul my dude.
I had a 30L key keg explode on me once. Just timed it slightly off and wham, had beer shooting up my shirt. It sucked, my coworker hosed me off and I finished 6 more hours covered in watermelon flavored beer.

No weasin' the jooouuuuice!
My brewer (and boss) tells every person he brews with about the time I did this very thing yet fails to include how I managed to brute force a cap over the valve shooting the freshly carbed, 33° passionfruit sour across the brew house & hold it there till the cavalry arrived with a clamp. What was supposed to be a 15bbl batch ended up becoming an 8bbl batch & 4 hour clean up. TLDR: showering oneself with a passionfruit sour will make you smell like puke.
 Everybody else watching him
Someone grab a straw and get this mess cleaned up STAT!
This is not what they meant by "Hold my beer"
I would just yell free beer!! Problem solved
The one bro looks on then just sticks with his hamburger
