This is the moment a tank of beer exploded into a man’s chest sending him flying across the room.
A brewer at Back Channel Brewing Co in Minnesota, USA, was working on a tank on January 23 when he checked a valve.
But he was suddenly knocked to the ground as a powerful jet of beer hits him straight in the chest.
Uninjured, the drenched man manages to stand up quickly.
He attempts to stop the gushing liquid from firing out of the tank.
Other workers rush to help plug the hole, but the floor is covered in beer making it hard to even get close to the erupting tank.
Back Channel Brewing Co have now made the New England IPA available in limited supply and have aptly named it ‘Blow Back’.
The beer is set to be a lot of nicer than the cans of Carslberg Anne-Maria Elsbury and her husband Wayne Morgan had purchased from ASDA in Bristol in April.
Ms Elsbury was left ‘stressed out’ after she found out the cans were full to the brim of ‘beerwater’ and didn’t appear to have been carbonated properly.

She has been offered a £15 voucher from Carlsberg, who blamed a dodgy batch for the issue.
The 46-year-old, from Wales, told The Sun: ‘I knew something was up because the tins felt really flimsy.
‘I was about four cans in and I thought something was up – it didn’t taste right.
‘A few days later and I was saying “this is it now, this just tastes like water”.’
