New Delhi, Feb 6 Twitterati added mirth and sarcasm to reports that said the residents in a Kerala building recently got a "boozy surprise" as the liquor flowed from taps in their building.

According to media reports, it all began six years ago when a bar named 'Rachana', located near the building, was charged with unlawfully storing 6,000 litres of liquor.
