Thats Bizzare - someone mentioned that to me recently.
Imagine the farts ! He forgot to mention that..

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe he's pulling the piss so you'll shit your brains out? I was at a stag all day Saturday, I'd have given it a go if I thought it would work.

So what would be different than drinking bottle fermented beers? The head start?

Would this not turn your belly into a fermenter and make burp and fart all night?

Not something I would even consider trying. If you can't handle drinking, don't drink.
