I saw this the first time in Vegas (in the only place our end of the strip with any decent beers). They have a magnet in the bottom that keeps the beer in. I found out it isn't too strong though...

When I went to a premiership match they had a machine that could pour 9 Carlsberg from the top down

What sort of unholy witchcraft is this???  :o

Seriously though, how does that work?

At a Munster match in the Ricoh Arena a few years back they had several machines behind each bar that filled 16 pints at a time! Twas impressive. Still a queue though...

I was at the Leinster match in The Aviva last night and the queues for a pint were painfully long. It wasn't the people pulling the pints that were slowing things down, it was the vastly inexperienced staff at the tills. Not their fault though, top down problem IMHO.

It wad awful. I only had the one pint as I couldn't be arsed waiting in line. Also the stone cold burger didn't help either, had to return them 3 times before I got one luke warm. Oh and only one till out of five could take cards.
