A brewery in a castle is offering punters the chance to bathe in warm beer in their underground vaults.

At Schloss Starkenberger in Austria, seven 13-foot long pools are open for visitors to immerse themselves in warm beer. Deep in the 700-year-old castle's cellar, artist Wernfried Poschusta modified the old fermentation rooms to hold 84,000 litres in the spa-like baths.The brewery has made it clear that while you can order one of the brewery's ten specialty beers from the bar to enjoy while you relax, you cant drink from the pools.One of the baths contains around 42,000 pints where visitors can sit and bathe and relax fully immersed in beer.The beer is rich in vitamins and calcium, and the brewery says that sitting in it is good for the skin and helps cure open wounds and psoriasis.The pools started back in 2005 when the old fermentation cellar of the 700-year-old castle became obsolete, so they turned the area into a beer spa. The beer is kept quite hot, although you can order a cold beer from the pool. The castle brewery is based on Stark mountain, where there is also a whiskey distillery.The surroundings around the mountain also feature a lake, which is popular with tourists and locals for its swimming and ice skating.
