Occurring when one of the fermenting porter's 22-foot-tall wooden vats exploded, where did the infamous 1814 Great Beer Flood occur?
Answer London
The London Beer Flood occurred on October 17, 1814 at Meux & Co's Horse Shoe Brewery in London. The leaking liquid from the exploding vat loosened another vessel's valve, destroying many huge barrels. Between 128,000 and 323,000 imperial gallons of beer were spilled. As Homer Simpson would say: D'oh!
