On October 21, 1879, using a carbonized thread as a filament, Thomas Edison tested the first practical electric incandescent light bulb. The bulb lasted 13.5 hours before burning out.
An incandescent light bulb works by having an electric current pass through a filament, heating it until it produces light. The glass blubl prevents oxygen from reaching the hot filament, which would cause the bulb to burn out rapidly due to oxidation.
There are apparently 22 people who can be listed as inventors of an incandescent lamp before Edison. But Edisons bulb performed better because it had a more effective incandescent material (the filament), had a higher vacuum than the others.
About the beer:
Edison light was introduced on September 10, 2001. It's produced by Rhonda Kallman (formerly of Boston Beer Company) and Dr. Joseph Owades, known as the father of light beer.
Brewed for smooth flavor and easy drinking by the brewmaster who invented light beer.So, for the first lightbulb, have a reinvented light beer.
