(I was trying to insert this into the "Drunk Thread"  ....   from Flipboard (news site) ....  via tapatalk from my Samsung note 4)....    Mods - please transfer it in if you wish....

## The idea in this story / link puts a whole new slant to the term:  "Taking the Piss" ...  LOL

Something similar has been around for years.

Brewers take water and turn it into beer.
People drink the beer and turn it into urine.
This machine turns the urine into water.
Brewers take the water and make beer with it again.


I thought Victoria Bitter already did this, but without any treatment to the urine.

Why would you want to do that when brewers go to a lot of trouble turning water into piss?
