Memphilter: The Mystery of the Widget

The Mystery of the Widget

I spent an entire evening wondering how in the hades the magic "widgets" in Guinness cans work. Thanks to the cornucopia of knowledge that is the web, I now realize that my conclusion that small elves pulled a tiny switch to release the nitrogen from the widget at the exact moment that you open your beer was false. Although I highly recommend an evening of speculation about the inner workings of the widget, those of you who need instant gratification can find out how it works here. I still think that there might be elves involved.

Only days ago I was confronted with a widget can of Guinness and wondered how it worked. I had no idea. Now I know. Knowledge is Power.
