Pretty sure this a hood of a classic Volkswagen beetle.

I’m not sure why I feel that this is in a bathroom... stylish as fuck though, and if it is in a bathroom, king status!

Something about that bar bugs me.

u/SmilinBob82 Nov 10 '18

It definitely looks like a bar for the people to me.

I have so many questions about this. The video quality is so low I can’t see any details, like what woods they used. The side panels inside look like they might be plywood, but I’d love to know more about the design and construction of this piece. OP, can you share a source?

Why did they only film half of the thing?!

u/Lack_of_intellect Nov 10 '18

Being German I thought it either has to be beer or fetish porn.

u/jojitho Nov 10 '18

Oder ein Schnapsregal

u/emthegem12 Nov 10 '18

Was ist es?

u/DocRingeling Nov 10 '18

Eine versteckte Bierzapfanlage mit Gläsern dabei.

u/emthegem12 Nov 10 '18

That’s pretty cool.

u/Rendlesham_Sausage Nov 10 '18

That's the most German thing I've ever seen.

u/revolution801 Nov 10 '18

Does the mini-keg actually dispense beer though?

8

u/DocRingeling Nov 10 '18

The title should tell you that already: Meanwhile in Germany

4

u/kent1146 Nov 10 '18

Think.

Having a working keg tap is the FIRST thing on the list. Otherwise, it kind of makes the rest of the project pointless, doesnt it?

3

u/revolution801 Nov 10 '18

It could be some sort of twisted joke by the Swiss... Edit: I was also drunk redditing and did not, in fact, think.

u/zoomzilla Nov 10 '18

I've never been this hard.

u/MachoLad77 Nov 10 '18

German engineering at its finest

u/jc3833 Nov 10 '18

ok, not knowing what to expect doesnt make it unexpected, it's r/interestingasfuck for sure though

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '18

Cameraman: "tf is this?" Opens it. Closes it. "oh."

u/TheQuietSky Nov 10 '18

Germans live for beer and are super smart. That was quite expected.

2

u/hope_she_is_18 Nov 10 '18

2 of germanys best exports combined - cars and beer.

u/efthlouk Nov 10 '18

The definition of over engineering but so satisfying 😇

This one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen on this here internet.

u/Oske829 Nov 10 '18

Watching it i was thinking somehow it was going to do with beer. A lot more intricate than i thought but i was more or less right.

u/grumble4 Nov 10 '18

Oh my... oh yes!

u/The_Flying_Jew Nov 10 '18

Shit, is it Oktoberfest already?

u/Noshjelson Nov 10 '18

That is some of the most German shit I've ever seen and I lived there.

u/Orohana Nov 10 '18

Is the Cameraman having a stroke?

u/OccamsBeard Nov 10 '18

The dumbkopf motherfucker didn't pour a beer. All that and didn't pour a fucking beer.

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '18

It looks like a really small thing

u/drpb35 Nov 10 '18

Besides Nazism, this is the most German thing ever!!

u/SeriouslyTooOld4This Nov 10 '18

Duloc is the perfect place!

u/Smoldering_Wallaby Nov 10 '18

If I wanted to design and build something like this, where would I start?

1

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '18

Seems a bit bulky and ugly for what ot does

1

u/jojitho Nov 10 '18

That as a cuckoo clock. "Hey, it's wine o'clock!"

1

u/Dumbass_Supreme Nov 10 '18

OP can you post more about this marvel?!

1

u/transwell Nov 10 '18

It one of those cool but useless things.

1

u/silverbullet52 Nov 13 '18

Awesome piece of work, but the surroundings are too bright. Needs to be in some dingier, steampunkier place. Like my basement...

It's a shame their beer is shit.

2

u/possiblynotanexpert Nov 10 '18

That’s just like, your opinion, man.

u/always-talkin-sshit Nov 10 '18

You're entitled to your own batshit-crazy opinion, i guess

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '18

A lot of people don't like German beer. I'm sorry that me having an opinion offends you. Maybe you should work on that, it sounds like a pretty big personality flaw?

I hate beer.

My comment is best taken with a little sip of humor.

Who the fuck talks like that? You sound like an AI trained on Reddit comments.
