Every College Student's Dream

A Norwegian woman recently lived the dream of college students everywhere when she turned on her faucet only to find beer, precious beer, pouring forth:

It almost seemed like a miracle to Haldis Gundersen when she turned on her kitchen faucet this weekend and found the water had turned into beer.

"We had settled down for a cozy Saturday evening, had a nice dinner, and I was just going to clean up a little," Gundersen, 50, told The Associated Press by telephone Monday. "I turned on the kitchen faucet and beer came out."

Two flights down, employees and customers at the Big Tower Bar were horrified when water poured out of the beer taps.

By an improbable feat of clumsy plumbing, someone at the bar in Kristiandsund, western Norway, had accidentally hooked the beer hoses to the water pipes for Gundersen's apartment.


Wowzers! There's a plumbing fuck-up that doesn't happen everyday. Oh, to have Captial's Wisconsin Amber flowing from the tap. It would be kind of odd to take a shower in the stuff, though. Would soap actually lather with beer?
