The footage, released by Back Channel Brewing Co., shows employee Brendan checking a valve on the beer tank. But, to his surprise, the drink ended up ‘exploding’, and the force of the beer jet, which was expelled from the tank directly onto Brendan’s chest, threw him backward.
Drenched in the drink, Brendan quickly got up and tried to contain the leak, while the beer continued to gush onto the floor. A coworker also came to help, and soon the two managed to contain the leak.
Taking advantage of the unusual incident, the brewery created a beer called “Blow Black,” a New England IPA with an alcohol content of 6.5%, available in limited quantities.
Despite the scare, Brendan suffered no injuries, and even joked about the situation: ‘I had to have a preview of the beer’s taste,’ he wrote on social media.
