(TheDrinksBusiness) - Atomic bomb tests conducted by the US military in the 1950s found that beer and soft drinks remained drinkable after a nuclear explosion.
The experiment took place as part of Operation Teapot in 1955, with cans and bottles of beer and soft drinks placed in three positions ranging from 0.2 miles to two mile away from the bomb-site.
Entitled “Project 32.2a. The Effect of Nuclear Explosions on Commercially Packaged Beverages”, the purpose of the tests was to find out what survivors would be able to drink in the aftermath of an atomic bomb attack.
