Beer Hour: Takara Tomy's Beer Can Dispenser

I am not really sure if beer lovers really need this kind of gadget, but Takara Tomy is ready to sell it (in Japan only – at least initially). The company has showcased the so-called “Beer Hour” in Tokyo today, a small device that’s supposed to make it easier to pour beer from cans into glasses.

According to Takara Tomy, the Beer Hour is “optimized” for the cans Japan’s four top breweries produce (I have no idea what that means). But the company also says that basically every beer can holding between 350ml and 500ml will fit, including those not made in Japan.


Takara Tomy will start selling the Beer Hour in yellow and black on May 19 (price: $25). If you live outside Japan, ask specialized online store Rinkya to get one shipped to you when the device comes out.
