    They work on ultra-sonics I believe - the aim is to make the bubbles merge into a head. Yet another annoyance, as a half of Guinness was the 'if all else fails' option when visiting ale-challenged pubs but can no longer be relied on.

    However, you can pick one up on e-Bay for £50 or so.
    On leaving the bar, I felt a strong blow to the back of my head. Turning round, I discovered it was the pavement

    So what is the difference between a Surger and an ultrasonic except for the prices

    Will this device allow you to do the same to any can or bottle as with guinness?

    But the price of all the branded names of barralage of beer has been stitched up to the like of the pub and weatherspoon now. Where by you may as well go to the supermarket buy 9X24 packs of carlin and get an old keg and funnel and fill the keg up with the cans. That way you will be paying 65 quid for an 11 keg as oposed to 110/ 130 quid from pub-cuts/ wholsalers/ bookers. Meaning you can now sell a pint of carlin for 1.80 on a 50/50 margin
