The Beer Industry's Mad Inventor

Nice toy...




Josh Springer, 28, feels overwhelmed these days is because of a YouTube video that shows his invention: the BottomsUp beer dispenser and beer cup. Once you hit play, you see three young men dressed in black t-shirts standing around a beer keg. Then the action starts: the man behind the keg places two plastic cups on top of what looks like some kind of hot plate (it’s actually a modified Army plasma cooler). That’s when something magical happens. The cups quickly fill with beer - from the bottom up. And when one of the assistants grabs the beers and moves them to a table, nothing spills out. The reason is that the bottom of the cup is covered by a circular magnet that lifts up under the pressure from the keg to allow beer to flow in, and then the weight of the liquid in the cup forces it back down into place.
