I am pretty ignorant regarding drinks, so until 10 minutes ago “black and tan” only reminded me of an Irish song. However, “a blend of pale ale and a dark beer such as a stout or porter” sounds damn fine – and difficult to make by a regular Joe.

The Brütül (brew tool with a faux foreign spelling, get it?) is a turtle that’s used to create layered beers. I’m not exactly sure how it works, because even the video looks a little like magic to me, but you can see for yourself here (direct link to .wmv video). Beside pouring beer, it also serves as a bottle opener and, of course, it’s a cute turtle.

Really, who could resist? Even if you never make a Black and tan, you’ve got a new toy to brag to your friends and a cool shaped opener.
