OK, this doesn't sound great, I know. But if you're ever planning an outdoor party and need a way to fend off the bees, place half bottles of beer around the perimeter of your space. The sugar will distract them from all the sting-able people around. Useful for pesky fruit flies as well!
Rusty screw giving you problems? Pour some beer over it. The carbonation can loosen it up!
