Is beer making dangerous?

I always like to add a cup of AntiFreeze to my beer, as it gives it a cool color and some residual sweetness. Some would consider that dangerous.















DISCLAIMER: I made that up. Do not add AntiFreeze to your beer, it will kill you.

It has been speculated that brewing something more or less like beer went hand in hand with the first cultivation of grains to bake bread, for the reasons others have noted above - that the brewing process will make questionable water safe to drink. Pretty much the same ingredients in baking and brewing.
