Brew up 

Share definition Flag
From world war two and used, usually by British soldiers, to describe the effect seen when the amunition propellant in a destroyed tank starts to ignite. The flames shoot out of any opening, most usually the turret hatches, extremely violently, like a Roman candle. This terrified tankers and as a sort of black humour they referred to it as brewing up.

Other nationalities sometimes referred to it as cooking off .. the ammunition was cooking off.
The tank was hit with an AP round and within seconds began to brew up.
