It is amazing what a bunch of fluid mechanics engineers can come up with when offered beer.
The engineers at Laminar Technologies studied the way that beer comes out of a tap, and designed a nozzle which reduces the amount of foam that is formed, allowing for a faster pour. Throughput is claimed at four gallons per minute.

OK, and here I was thinking that the coolest use for CFD was designing a really kick-ass set of cylinder heads.
4 gallons/minutes, huh? This seems almost German in its cold efficiency, although I'm sure it violates the Reinheitsgebot in some way.
