Awaiting a flight out of Japan’s Narita Airport, I came across this beer-pouring machine in the Delta lounge. See it in action here. It turns out that there’s a science to pouring beer as I reported in this article explaining how UK Boffins Pull Off Brilliant DOE on Beer. The only drawback of this machine is that it lacks conversational skills. I found it a bit awkward sitting there with my perfectly poured beer and no one to talk to while enjoying it. 🙁
