'Bottoms Up' Beer Dispenser Pours 10 Pints in 10 Seconds

by Lee Bains on November 20, 2008 at 05:01 PM


In keeping with the close kinship between beer and technology, the Scotsman company has introduced the innovative Trufill beer dispenser, Uber Review and Foodbev report.

With Trufill's pioneering design, beer enters the glass through the bottom, allowing a bartender (or overly enthusiastic drinker) to pour as many as 10 pints of beer in 10 seconds. This speedy dispensing technology could be a boon for crowded bars and concession stands, who often lose sales with the time it takes to pour a headless beer.

Scotsman Beverage Systems' Web site explains that the Trufill's functionality depends upon a 'non-return valve' in the bottom of a specially designed glass. That's too bad; we'd really hoped that the folks at Scot-Bev had invented some sort of fluid-teleportation device. [From: Foodbev via Uber Review]
