Belgium Now Has A Vending Machine That Spits Out Entire Cases Of Beer – Your Move, America

RogerSterlingJr10 years ago

We’ve all been there. You’re on your way back from the bar after close, shitfaced, but not quite ready to call it a night, with a girl who wants to keep the party going. You head back to your place but before you can even show her your fish tank, you get a snap of your roommate passed out on your couch with Sharpie dicks on his face, surrounded by half-empty cans of the beer from your fridge.

The liquor store and beer distributor are both closed and there’s no chance you’re making the trip in the other direction to the gas station without killing the mood completely, so what are you do to? Well, in Belgium, you just whip out your ID and credit card and walk off with a case under one arm and your girl on the other.

From City Lab:

The mighty invention, located in West Flanders, is the first of its kind in the world, according to Het Nieuwsblad. It’s a pilot project from brewing giant AB InBev, thus its loads of Jupiler beer, a popular Belgian brew made partly with corn. It was fabricated in Italy and has some sort of ID-checking system to prevent fun-loving teens from piling up around it, snowdrift-like, in intoxicated reverie.

The thing looks like it can hold six packs as well as full cases.

All I want for Christmas is a Bud Light vending machine..
