A woman thought she was in heaven when beer instead of water flowed
from the taps in her apartment
in west Norway.
"I turned on the tap to clean some knives and forks and beer came out,"
Haldis Gundersen told Reuters from her home in Kristiansund, west Norway.
"We thought we were in heaven."
Beer in Norway is among the most expensive in the world with a 0.4
litre (0.7 pint) costing about
50 crowns (4.3 pounds) in a
bar.
Gundersen said she tried the beer but that it tasted a bit odd and was
not fizzy.
It turned out that a worker in a bar two floors below had mixed up the
pipes, wrongly connecting a new barrel to a water pipe leading to
Gundersen's flat. The bar got water in its beer taps.
