YIPES! I trust you drank the plastic liter beer ASAP. Soda bottle plastic, when in contact with
fermentation beer releases polyethelene terephthalate, also known as PET which creates/leaches a carcingenic metalloid: antimony which increases as the temperature rises. There is beer in modern plastic containers, such as Heinekin at the Olympics venue where breakable glass bottles would be deemed a hazard. JUST SAYIN'!
