Beer

A new study that investigated the effect that drinking alcohol has on men’s perceptions of attractiveness may have disproven one well-known drinking-related phenomenon while providing supporting evidence for another.

The Draft Top is designed to take your beer can (and other drinks) to a new level. It cleanly and smoothly removes the lid from an aluminum vessel, allowing for better taste, less bloat, imaginative creations and, afterwards, some clever repurposing.

Ever dropped a peanut in a glass of beer? If not, researchers say you're missing out, as it triggers an unusual interaction that temporarily defies the principle of buoyancy. We believe the hypothesis was rigorously tested with repeat experiments.

Beer from a can just ain't the same as beer from a tap, and a lot of it's about the foam. The Japanese take their beer foam pretty seriously, it would seem, and a design team reckons it's worked out how to deliver the perfect pour using an extra tab.

The longer it takes to brew a batch of beer, the greater the chances of microorganisms getting in and ruining the whole thing. In order to speed up and simplify the process, scientists have developed tiny BeerBots.

A monastic brewery in East Germany says it's created the first powdered beer. Just add water, and it'll froth up, complete with a foamy head and full flavor. The result promises massive savings on transport, because it can be shipped at 10% of the weight.

It’s hard to beat a draft beer, but we usually have to make do with bottles and cans when away from the bar. Enter the Cooler Keg, a new design for a draft beer dispensing system built right into a cooler.

A small pilot study suggests that moderate consumption of lager beer may influence the diversity of our gut bacteria in a positive way, whether it's a traditional brew or one of the increasingly popular non-alcoholic variety.

While non-alcoholic beer has some obvious advantages over its traditional counterpart, many people say that it just doesn't taste as good. Danish scientists now claim to have overcome that problem, using genetically engineered baker's yeast.

A set of lengthy silver and gold tubes dug up from a famous grave in the the Caucuses has been found to represent the oldest surviving drinking straws, with the scientists behind the discovery believing they were used for communal beer consumption.

Nothing tops off a day's adventure like an ice-cold beer. GSI Outdoors makes it easier to enjoy that beer anywhere with a vacuum-insulated cooler tube designed to stack two 12-oz cans and keep them chilled for the journey.

Researchers studying exceptionally well-preserved feces found in Iron Age salt mines have discovered the presence of fungi used in food fermentation. The findings indicate the miners were feasting on blue cheese and beer around 2,700 years ago.
