Description
The Makeshift rocket Kned Axel Syrup, chief engineer of the spaceship Mercury girl, sat and drank his favourite beer and thought about the coming war he was so anxious to avoid. For Grendel - the planetoid on which he was stranded - had been occupied by a fiery band of Irish Revoluutionaries. And once the rival Anglicans discovered this their response would be speedy and violent. Then as Herr Syrup shook up a bottle of brew and let the foam shoot out of its top he realized suddenly what could be done to get him off Grendel. And so he came up with a marvellous spaceship - built of beer kegs, bound by gunk, upholstered by pretzel boxes, and powered by the mighty reaction of malted brew!
