There are many more available, as well as a selection of non-alcoholic beverages. However, none have gone viral like their new creation, thanks to a video that proves brewing beer can truly be a high-pressure endeavor.

The Back Channel posted a surveillance video from January 23, which captures the startling moment when an employee gets sent backward to the ground by the force of the beer coming from the tank.

The video below has since gone viral on Facebook and Instagram.

Thankfully, the brewery said the worker wasn't injured. If you'd like to try that beer, it's appropriately called "Blow Back", which Back Channel says is a New England IPA, adding that it's on "limited supply, of course."
