Q&A and pointless trivia

[Pommy]

Not sure if this has been done before but Ive had an idea for a completely pointless yet informative thread. Heres the deal, you answer the beer related question then add one of your own. Before you know it there should be a good resource of all things beer

Lets start off easy to see if anyone want to play then this thing might snowball :rockin:

So I'll start with an easy one....

I've got one for you. What brewery developed square bottles with hopes of using empty bottles to build houses in poor countries?

It's pretty neat, I saw a few of the prototypes while touring the brewery, but they said the idea never took off.
