LONDON WAS DROWNED IN BEER — THE GREAT BEER FLOOD OF 1814 #history #historyshorts #darkhistory

On October 17, 1814, a giant beer vat burst inside the Horse Shoe Brewery in London. More than half a million liters of porter beer rushed into the nearby streets, destroying buildings and flooding the St. Giles neighborhood. Eight people lost their lives in one of history’s strangest industrial disasters. This was not a war, a fire, or a natural catastrophe—it was a deadly beer flood.
