Geysered the entire bottle! (Unity Vibration Bourbon Peach)

I feel for you I had an entire four pack of Rayon Vert geyser on me last week. it was not only a mess, but it was like ten dollars wasted. what was I going to do, go back to the store and complain and show them empty bottles?

 

Sounds like an inadvertent drainpour

 

Search Kombucha and how it is brewed with a SCOBY.

When starting out, Unity found out they had to get a brewer's license since the drink had enough alcohol to be controled by the Feds.

 

Ceiling-pour maybe?

 

We had the same experience with this beer. My buddy cracked the cap. Not opened, just cracked. Violently spewed out all over the floor (luckily not carpet). I grabbed it out of his hand and put a glass over it, ran to the bathroom and sat there as it unrelentingly sprayed out all over. Once the foam in the glass settled out, we had about an ounce and a half to share between 3 guys. The thimbleful I tasted was good at least

I've seen gushers but this was spraying like a seltzer bottle on steriods. I know it's subject to further fermentation in the bottle, but that's careless to package and sell a product like that. That is a bottle bomb waiting to happen and I wouldn't be at all surprised to hear of someone getting injured from a bottle exploding or a cap taking out an eye.

 

I'm sorry but that sounds ridiculously hilarious if you could watch from a 3rd party scenario.


Sorry to kick you while your down but lol.

 

This thread is absolutely hilarious for some reason.

On a side note, I once opened a bottle of my co-workers homebrew and the cap shot off so fast that it gave me a bloody lip.

 

Bummer about the beer but I expected a video. I guess I'll have to perform the same ritual to see it.

 

Our avatars pwn you.

 

Not sure it will do any good for you, but Green Flash has admitted to gushing problems with last batch. Maybe brewery would be the one to contact.

 

Just get a diet Coke and some Mentos and do a reenactment...

 

Been there done that. But I guess it would be cheaper than blowing an entire bottle of great beer.

 

I bought a bottle of this exact "beer" from the store where Bob works. While it certainly wasn't my cup of tea, I didn't have any gushing at all. It poured perfectly with minimal head. In fact, here's a picture:

 

I had never even heard of a kombucha before I stumbled onto this thread. Thanks for the catchy headline which brought me in and caused me to learn something. I tip my cap to your fallen beverage though.

 

Interesting, that much pressure to empty the whole bottle but it didn't blow the cork spontaneously? That must have been in there good.

Dope

 

it's capped. no cork.
