One Million Beers For Metal

\

Met­al­heads gen­er­ally aren’t known for their super-healthy lifestyles. But I reckon this might make even the most sea­soned drinker balk.

Some­one in Texas (where else) – let’s call him an ‘entre­pre­neur’ – has come up with a recipe for deep fried beer, patent pend­ing. Appar­ently it’s actu­ally a pretzel-like dough filled with beer and briefly deep fried. Briefly so as not to affect the alco­hol con­tent, of course.

The ‘inven­tion’ will be pre­miered at a fried food com­pe­ti­tion in Texas, an insti­tu­tion that last year awarded recipe for deep fried butter.

Inven­tor Mark Zable is quoted as saying:

“Nobody has been able to fry a liq­uid before. It tastes like you took a bite of hot pret­zel dough and then took a drink of beer.”

His pre­vi­ous culi­nary achieve­ments have included chocolate-covered straw­berry waf­fle balls and jalapeño corn­dog shrimps. I bet he’s one fat dude!

Five ravioli-sized pieces will cost USD $5. I’m guess­ing at that rate it would take you a long time – not to men­tion a fair wad of cash — to get drunk.
