They don't stop.....EVER!

Stone must be a mess to brew so many beers. Now this: http://www.stochasticity.com/beers/crheam
Stochasticity™ Project
Cr(He)am
STYLE: Cream Ale ABV: 4.0% IBUs: 75 Share

Despite its unique and unexpected ingredient, Stone Stochasticity Project Cr(He)am Ale with Helium is an easy-drinking session beer with light notes of toast and an effervescent floral, spicy, and strong hop character from the addition of Helga hops. Helium is introduced to the beer via a widget that activates when the can is opened, streaming helium into the beer. The result is a very smooth mouth-feel and a tickle that produces a curious effect on the drinker, unlike any other beer.

Ages ago at an Irish club I had a beer in a can that when opened, released nitrogen and it was very good. This isn't new technology, just wave after wave after wave of new beers. And talk about session beer-4%? Never thought I'd see the day Stone would make a cream ale.

I got the same email notification. I wonder if your voice goes into that funny high pitch cartoon-like range after you drink this???

ALB never came over to here, so no way to reach her.

I got it earlier this morning to 2 separate email addresses.
Sheesh, Go To still isn't on many shelves here. There's such an influx of new beers in our area with Founders opening the doors today and 6 others the last few months plus local breweries that the stores literally can't keep up.

Me 2.

I can see the potential for a whole new beer party/frat party game coming out of this.

And here's a rundown of Stone's rich April Fools history...

really, you should have known better. After all, we tell the truth all year long so do you really think we'd pass up our once-a-year opportunity to tell a big whopper of a fib? Not on your life!

It appears that this actual news item is the reason for the dual AF jokes regarding creating hydrogen beers...
