Here's an idea I just had... Although I am guessing it has already been tried and proven impossible. POWDERED BEER!!! Just think of the possibilities. Have your favorite beverage while on a big wall, the top of a mountain, or on a backpacking trip. Any chemists around here? Is this at all feasible? I am betting that alcohol's chemical properties would not lend themselves well to turning it into a powder. But I still think it's a grand idea!
Cheers!
