Japanese beer company, Kirin has come up with a frozen beer foam (-5 degrees Celsius / 23 degrees F) that tops off your beer to keep it ice cold (via Gizmodo). And who doesn’t like ice cold beer, especially if it’s served by the (former) Ice Cold Beer man at Toronto Blue Jay games?

The Ichiban Shibori Frozen Draft is essentially a floating, frozen cap for your beer, and keeps it cold up to 30 minutes. The frozen foam is also like a beer-flavoured ice cream topping, too.
