Beer flows out of taps in Norway

Kristiansund (Norway): A Norwegian woman was stunned when she turned on her kitchen tap - and beer poured out.

Haldis Gundersen was cleaning her dishes when she discovered her water supply had been replaced with free-flowing alcohol.

Haldis told the website femalefirst, "I turned on the tap to clean some knives and forks, and beer came out. We thought we were in heaven."

Adding to Gunderson's delight was the fact that in Norway, a half-liter brew can cost 25 kroner ($3.75) in grocery stores.

Gundersen lives above the Big Tower Bar in Kristiansund. At the same time that she was doing high-fives upstairs, bartenders below were scratching their heads in puzzlement. Why was water gushing from the beer taps?

It turned out that a technician had accidentally connected a beer barrel to the apartment water pipe.

However, much to Gundersen's grief, the problem was quickly remedied.
