I've been looking for stuff to laugh at in between being passed out at odd hours of the day and I stumbled across this.

Funny as anything, but sadly it is fake. I would start drinking beer otherwise!

I misread. I thought this would be about helium infused 'biners.

Me too. Only reason I know it isn't real is because I looked to see where I could buy some!

A few years back I did some solubility calculations; turns out you could actually make a sparkling wine using nitrous oxide instead of CO2. Never did it though.......

My brother got busted in Safeway many years ago for snorting nitrous out of whipped cream cans. He'd go in, take hits out of a couple of cans, then put them back on the shelf. Don't shake before use.

Terrible waste of helium
Helium is getting rare and expensive, no sense wasting it like this

Wait. You mean those Wild Country things I bought aren't actually made of Helium?

It's waaay more fun to use hydrogen, if you're a pyro anyway.

I just finished making a portable keg cooler, for car camping. I use CO2 to charge the beer.

Certainly not a beer making (or drinking) expert here, but I offer this for additional information.
