Bearing in mind it was posted yesterday has anyone ever tried to make one

I'm sure I recall seeing a few American breweries trying to grab attention with glitter beers last year. So, yes, they are (unfortunately) 'a thing'. The April fools is in relation to AHA adding them to their NHC style categories.

I've never heard of anyone making one on a homebrew level but I'm sure someone will have tried it.

Anyone can make glitter beer! Make beer, add glitter - done. It's easy to find edible glitter on line. Even real gold flake, but what's the point?

Well,,, there's Danziger Goldwasser & Silberwasser so why not
Don't think your local HBS will have stocks of Gold and Silver flakes though!

Would it work on a homebrew level or would it settle out in the bottle with the yeast? It would have to be a glitterweizen or something to work if that was the case!

Gary Glitter's gone to Florida with his family. To Tampa with the kids!

Seen the likes of brewdog and the like making these. Don't see the point apart from a marketing gimmick. At homebrew level I would just add the glitter when serving
