I always wondered what beer would taste like it in space.

In your space ship very normal.

Actually, it wouldn't. Zero gravity (freefall if you want to get technical) or low gravity (if you're on the moon) causes your internal fluids to be redistributed towards your head, resulting in (among other symptoms) swollen sinuses, causing many foods and beverages to taste rather bland in space.

Outside it would freeze due to the vacuum letting liquid water evaporate until the rest is frozen. Also good luck drinking it with the same thing happening to your blood.

Your blood would not evaporate in the vacuum of space, as your blood is pressurised by your circulatory system (and if it isn't, you're already dead). Nor would you freeze; although your sweat, tears, and saliva would instantly evaporate, the heat loss is insignificant.

Don't listen to people who don't know science. ... You would boil in space.

Okay, we won't listen to you, then. Wink

Nice explanation! Are you astronomer or physics expert?
