Novel Beverage Refrigerator

FEATURING seven revolving shelves which accommodate 504 bottles, this novel electric beverage refrigerator display unit measures only 37 inches in diameter, saving floor space while advertising many brands.

Why bother brewing craft-style in a light version?

Miller Brewing Co. will test market three new versions of Miller Lite as the brewer tries to cash in on a growing consumer preference for craft beers.

They apparently will test market the "Miller Lite Brewers Collection" in February. The three new versions of Miller Lite will be a blonde ale, an amber beer and a wheat beer - each with fewer calories and carbohydrates than a typical beer for that style.

The three new beers will target mainstream drinkers and capitalize on trends that favour light beer, greater variety of beer styles and a willingness to pay more for "higher-quality" beers.

I hope that the light-wave will miss Europe, and we keep on getting heavy beers. Heavy on quality, taste, smell, ingredients and overall experience.

If we are counting calories, I'd rather drink fewer beers, than drinking lighter versions.

Soldering your own furniture from beer cans

How about some home made metal furniture from beer cans (Aug, 1936). 420 cans has been soldered together and has produced the table and chair shown in use below. Bernard Dier of Chicago made it in ten days. I think that the construction would not last a week in my home. Are the cans empty or not. Empty ones seen way too unstable to do furniture like this.
