Refrigerate After Opening

Via twitter: Wired reports on a company that's making beer from Eocene yeast recovered from amber.

Lambert and Cano had toyed with the idea for 12 years. Before Ambergene went under, the company made a batch on a lark. "We called it Jurassic Amber Ale or T-Rex Lager or something, and it was pretty good," Cano says. It was served at his daughter's wedding, and they even sent some to the Jurassic Park 2 cast party. That experiment had Cano and Lambert itching to release a beverage commercially. But they wanted it to be something respectable.

Needless to say, PlagueBlog recommends against eating anything that's over 40 million years old. In fact, only under the most extraordinary circumstances should you eat anything over 4 years old.
