Dogfish, a brewing company in Delaware, USA, famous for making unusual liquors, has created a beer "Celest-jewel-ale" = "jewel beer that shines in the sky" using moon rock. We have also developed a glass holder that uses the same material as spacesuits to keep drinks at the optimum temperature.



A romantic moon rock beer that seems to appear in a science fiction movie. The reason why it was made is also romantic, "I wanted to dedicate it to the harvest moon in mid-autumn." The moon rock beer, made with the desire to illuminate the hands of farmers and praise the Mid-Autumn Moon, which has supported the fruits of autumn, is sold only at the Dogfish Head Brewings & Eats bar, which is run by Dogfish. It is said that it became a symbol to celebrate the moon.


A glass holder made of the same material as the spacesuit has also been developed. This holder, which keeps the beer in the glass at a comfortable temperature at all times, is made of the same material as the material used to make space suits, so it can withstand harsh space environments. It can withstand temperature changes from about minus 120 degrees to 120 degrees, collision of meteor dust (burning dregs of shooting stars) flying at about 16 km / s faster than sound, radiation emitted from the sun, and vacuum space. That's right.

Of course, the question arises as to whether it is necessary to have such durability just to drink beer. But actually, I realized of the month travel by private companies has been promoted to the prospect of the 2020 in the United States. The day may come when we will land on the moon and toast with moon rock beer using the spacesuit material holder.
