It's not as cool a it sounds. They won't be brewing the beer in space, or even using ingredients grown on space. Sapporo brewers are going to use barley grown (on earth) from seeds that spent time on the International Space Station.The Japanese beer company said they expect to get about 100 bottles from this batch, but they won't sell it. I say, why even advertise that? Why get our hopes up in the first place? Even if it wasn't brewed in space, it's still pretty neat. Maybe this will lead to bigger batches, though, that Sapporo actually will sell. All I know is that I want space beer.
