Never seen anything like this before, actually genius.

Yeah, they are pretty sweet. A place I went to in Las Vegas had one of these and it kept lines moving fast.
Also brilliant because I'm sure you have to buy the cups from the company that makes the draft system....

Yet after 30 mins with Levy the company were paying us for the inconvenience of having to use them!

Hope it's not just craft beer. Would love to be able to get a nice pint of Guinness at the new stadium!

Love a pint of the black stuff but unless they design one where it stops three quarters up, waits 20 seconds then fill the rest up then can't see it happening annoyingly!

Yeah I know, but when you hear of an 80 foot bar, wine and cheese club, micro brewery and a bakery, Guinness on draft isn't too much to expect is it? :)

It's okay. The local area is being razed and rewilded, as the picture shows. Nothing around but trees as far as the A406.

That bird in the blue dress with shoulder length brown hair gets about a bit doesn't she, looks quite fit too! :whistle:

Yes, Guinness is, unfortunately, antithetical to the concept of "quick beer", as one of their advertising slogans was keen to emphasise. Would drive the bartenders insane, the queuing drinkers too.

The bottom-up-filling glasses are great fun, but I'm more focused on the desire for good beer than I am on the hunt for quick beer. I drink ale and the omnipresence of flavourless, fizzy and overpriced lager is the reason I do not drink at WHL.

If they develop a micro-brewery in the stadium that sells well-made ale, I'll be in the half time queue.

Not really. A few years ago I went to Reading to watch London Irish play 'Quins and they had a set of taps that could pour 16 pints at a time, in two rows of eight. Worked really well!

Newbury Racecourse does Guinness from a can, pour it straight into the glass. Stick it on some plate (I'd guess ultrasonic) and the pint clarifies and looks like a draft. You had a pint in your hand in about 20 seconds.

Not the greatest pint of Guinness I've ever had but a long way from the worst.

On a side note I went to Ireland vs Romania at Wembley during the Rugby WorldCup, 89,000* Irish and plastic Irish people and not a pint of Guinness to found.
