Is this like when they put the Energizer Bunny’s battery in backwards? He just kept coming and coming.

Appears to be a garden-variety refrigerator, using cold water as the heat exchanger. I can see how they could have a market in UK where refrigerators are the size of dorm refrigerators, but I can’t see the benefit in the US.

Watching the video it seems like the trick is they take the warm beer and switch it for a cold one.

Better not put it next to the normal microwave and forget which is which.

My best friend puts ice cubes in her beer and her red wine. Ask her why and she’ll say “Who’s drinking this, you or me? I like it this way.”

mythbusters did an episode about the best way to cool a beer. I think it took about 15 minutes using ice and running water and this is an improvement.

It looks just like a wine bottle chiller a local grocery store lets customers use if they want to instantly chill a bottle of wine from the shelf.
The secret is .... cold water .... shhhh, don't tell anyone.

A remote method of cooling large volumes of matter - without heat transfer to a cold surface - would be revolutionary. As a technology breakthrough, it would be at least as big as the laser or transistor. It would transform society in ways that would lie far outside the function of basic refrigeration. It would revolutionize energy production and conversion, making new and strange types of engines and energy storage methods possible.
It would have huge implications for medical care, materials science, physics, chemistry, and biology.
For these reasons, I expect that it’s impossible, or at least won’t be possible for maybe 100 years. I think it may be impossible on thermodynamic grounds, but I must confess I can’t give a good chain of induction to support this.
Such a device would be a sort of molecular “anti-sound,” similar at a molecular (phonon) level to the anti-sound technology that is used in noise canceling headphones.
It would require at the - very least - immense computing bandwidth, in conjunction with physical sensors of enormous sensitivity and bandwidth.
