Papazian also mentions an old recipe for "cock ale," in which a whole (dead) rooster is a featured ingredient. Harpoon brewery (Boston) is currently making a limited run of an oyster stout. I haven't been able to find a bottle yet. I know that snake wines can be found in parts of Asia, it would surprise me if snake beers weren't also available. James Spencer makes a Frankenberry (breakfast cereal) beer on one of his video podcasts.
I wonder if a bacon beer exists.

Rocks. Heat rocks to very high temps, about 400F-500F degrees, then drop enough of the hot the rocks in the kettle to achive a boil. Now continue to switch rocks out to keep you wort boiling. Cold rocks from the kettle back to the fire, hot rocks from the fire to the kettle. The idea here is to boil your beer for an entire hour without using any direct heat, only the indirect heat from the rocks.

I have used swill-grade beer; Natty, Milwaukee Best, Huber, Old Milwaukee, Bud Lite, Miller Lite, Black Label, and a few others as mash water. Heated the beer to 163, smelled like piss, then doughed in for a perfect 5.2 pH. We made a very nice imperial pils.
old ***** yeast beer.
