The word 'berserk' comes from the Norse, Germanic language for 'bare shirt'. This is because our good old friends the Vikings would drink themselves silly on ale before charging into battle often armour-less and topless. This word eventually took on the meaning of their wild battles.
People say beer only slurs your words, turns out it makes new ones too!
