It's a widely believed myth that robots cannot brew great beer. It's true that they are naturally greedy and impatient, two traits that do not make for great brewers.
However, every now and then, a robot rises above its nature to make something that is both palatable and mostly non-toxic to carbon-based lifeforms. Cold Fusion Steam beer is one of those somethings.
Cold fusion steam is loosely based on the "steam" beers of San Francisco, mostly famously represented by Anchor Steam. Where regular steam beer uses lager yeast fermented at the warmer temparatures favored by ale yeast, cold fusion steam beer uses a genetically engineered extremophile bacteria that ferments at temperatures in excess of 1000 degrees.
Inside a sealed high-pressure vessel, the fermentation is so violent that fusion reactions start to occur deep within the core of the beer. This leads to a flavor that experts describe as "toasty" and "mildly radioactive".
Benderbrau is the most famously litigious brand of cold fusion steam beer and this commemorative Futurama Bender Steam Beer T-shirt from Stylin' Online celebrates the lawyers who have made it so. Try one today if you are up to date on your anti-radiation shots.
