Drivers faced lengthy delays after a multi-truck crash spilled beer kegs across the road, coating the busy motorway in beer.
The crash on the Logan Motorway Wednesday, south of Brisbane, blocked several lanes of traffic and causing significant delays for commuters.
Emergency services were called just before 6am and firefighters arrived at 7.30am to the incident, after three trucks and two cars collided.
‘There were no entrapments. Firefighters made sure the scene was safe,’ a Queensland Fire and Emergency Service spokeswoman said.

Olympia Kwitowski, the traffic reporter for radio station 4BC said: ‘There are beer kegs all over the road, so there’ll be a big clean-up.’
A tweet from the Queensland police said there were ‘No major injuries, but this one still hurts.
‘A multi-truck crash on the Logan Motorway eastbound at Heathwood causing big delays due to a keg spill,’ the tweet said.
The eastbound right lane was the first to be reopened, easing traffic conditions.
It was the second crash to delay commuters on Wednesday morning, with another collision closing lanes on the Bruce Highway at Morayfield.
Police said two trucks colliding sparked the incident in that incident.
Firefighters arrived at 7.30am to the incident, which involved three trucks and two cars
Motorists were urged to use a detour while emergency services tended to the crash.
In a busy morning for the emergency services, there was also a four-car crash on the Centenary Highway inbound at Jindalee.
Kwitowski said the Bruce Highway had 10-kilometre delays eastbound and seven-kilometre delays on the Centenary Highway.
