Beer review – the ultimate step for every paper

Yes, you read right; I typed beer review. That is because one of our coauthors has the charming tradition of homebrewing a keg of beer for every published paper.

The paper in this case:
📝Fabrication of poly (ε-caprolactone) 3D scaffolds with controllable porosity using ultrasound 🌐DOI:10.1038/s41598-025-06818-9

This beer is, of course, nothing ordinary. In this case it was the unique ACOUSTIBREW, a Märzen, dry-hopped and with a small amount of sencha tea that gave it a unique flavor. The AI designer described this correctly as “focused flavor deposition” and made up the entire label.

Adding tea to beer is a serious violation of the Bavarian Reinheitsgebot from 1516. Luckily here nobody minds, so we were allowed to taste this wonderful creation.

Thank you, Robert for brewing this great beer for us. It went down so well and was really “süffig”, as we say in German. This beer gave us extra motivation and new ideas to write more papers together.
