Until they invent sunglasses that make you – or your next blind date – more attractive, Brewsees may be the best innovation in eyewear we’re likely to see.
Thanks to the emergence of the craft beer movement in America over the past 20 years, you probably know your IPAs from your ESAs. Let’s just hope you stayed away from those DUIs.
Confucius once said “Beer and pizza go together like beer and pizza.” He said it during his later years, he might have been losing his quotability by that time. Anyway, beer and a slice go so well together we’re a little surprised it’s taken so long for somebody to combine the flavors of pizza into a beer.

Consider this the legalization of “kegs and eggs.” The Wisconsin Assembly is scheduled to vote on a bill that would allow beer and liquor sales to begin at 6 a.m. The current law prohibits the sale of liquor before 8 a.m.

While scientists have yet to perfect artificial intelligence, they’ve at least perfected artificial beer preference. When it comes to brewskies, this thirsty robot named DARwIn-OP know what it likes — the folks who built him over at Trossen Robotics actually programmed him to have a drink of choice. Given the option, the little guy will ignore a can of Bud Light and go for a cold Tecate every time.
It could have something to do with the colors of their respective cans, but we like to think DARwIn’s just got fond memories of a robo-bender in Mexico.
