Once in a small town in America, there was a brewer. The brewer owned his own bar, so villagers visited him daily for a pint or two. His beer was known all over the village for its unique taste and pure richness. You couldn't really describe it to be honest.

One day, a man named Jhom walked into the bar. He asked the brewer if he could have a pint of his beer. The man drank it, paid, then went home. The next day he was found dead in his bed. A hangover apparently, it stated on the news.

Two days later, a blond lady called Sara walked in and required a pint if the brewer's beer. She drank it, paid, then went home. The bar was losing customers as the man had died a couple of days ago, so the brewer made a new advert. It advertised what was in his beer. It also proved that the beer was safe to drink. So people came back gradually. But then it happened. A TV flashed breaking news. A lady suffered from a hangover apparently, the reporter told all who were tuned in. Two deaths now. What would become of his bar???

Finally the brewer got fed up. It stated on his poster that there was a secret ingredient. Who knows what it was? He did, of course. But he didn't reveal it.

Another man was hired for the bar. He mixed beer with the brewer. He also noticed the secret ingredient- poison. Was it deliberate? Misunderstood? Read wrong? The reasoning could well have been endless. But then it became clear. A shout was heard from Jhom to his assistant.

"Jamell, get the poison for me please."

So that was why the people would die. But who would be next...?
