The foam-making beer glass

It's a sad fact of life but beer will never taste quite as good as it does in a pub. You can force your girlfriend to pretend to be a surly barmaid as she pours from a can in your kitchen but it's not going to cut it.

Helping to ensure that you might literally never leave your house again, a Japanese company have created the Beer Jug Jokki Hour, a glass that gives you the ability to add pub-style foam to your beer.

The trick is to fill your mug 3/4 full and then press the non-battery operated switch to create a fresh layer of foam. Apparently a lot of foam is preferable in Japan.

All you need now is a healthy supply of Scampi Fries, a pool table and a foul-smelling bathroom and you're pretty much set.
