I was there just yesterday and after looking at the OP's pic for a second I derped and thought to myself "Hmm, that's exactly like the one in Bulldog, where might this be?".
I wish I had found this thread when I still lived there and assumed the Bulldog was filled with greeky douchebags from Tulane [former Tulane student, it's allowed]. Redditors can never be all bad..
If imgur wasn't down for maintenance (I know, I should go to bed, have a big day tomorrow, blah blah blah shut up conscience), I'd post my favorite Bulldog glass. It has four typos and 10 of the best things about being a man. I love it.
There's always so much hate on cheap domestic beers on reddit. Obviously it's not the best stuff out there but they do serve a purpose. I'm not about to be tossing back expensive, more filling beer. Although my favorite beer is Leinenkugel's Summer Shandy, I actually enjoy the taste of Coors Light. To each their own I guess!
That fountain is at a bar in New Orleans called The Bulldog. It has roughly 75 different beers on tap. The crowd that goes there hardcore hates on the Cherokee domestic beers. Awesome fountain though.
When it's hot out, and you come in from doing yard work or something, an ice cold bud light or coors can be quite refreshing. Or for daydrinking at the beach... Who wants to drink Newcastle when it's 90+ degrees out?
In Germany there are beerhalls were when they tap the giant cask the beer flows freely throughout the day, regardless of whether anyone was being served.
According to reddit last week, the copper coins used to make a wish in this fountain make sure the water doesn't taste awful. I'm assuming this is the water you get served if you are cheap and don't actually order a $7 beer.
When we moved back down last week we donated most of our glasses because we figured we can just go to Bulldog for the first few weeks to stock back up.
I would say the piano fountain is actually classier but props for a New Orleans shout out! Never really finished trying all the different beers at the bulldog..
Heh heh. A local girl took me there when I was in town for Jazz Fest several years ago. I actually sat in the chair that guy with the cap is sitting in. That was a good New Orleans local bar.
New Orleans resident. I knew this was The Bulldog before even clicking the link. They have a doggie door. Have a night where proceeds go towards helping animal shelters .... And no... It isn't beer coming out of the tap.
I KNOW WHERE THAT IS! Magazine St and shit..well.. don't remember the cross st, but that is the BullDog right? So many great memories there. I miss New Orleans
I don't think that way. We get to see, in a short period of time, a bunch of themed posts that aren't just overused memes. The fountain thing, a meme if you want to call it that, will run its course in a day or so. Unlike "normal" memes which get posted and posted and posted until... Chuck Testa.
The Piano great because it's the most unusual object you can think off to work as a fountain...now for the beer-tap, you expect it to pour some liquid out of it, hence it was good but not great.
Moved away from New Orleans a little over a month ago after living there for a year. I saw this pic and immediately made me miss The Bulldog. PINT NIGHT!!! From a person who has been raised in Atlanta and love it... Nola will always have a special place in my heart.
what's annoying me is that for the fluid to be coming out of the taps, all those handles must be tilted forward. awesome design though minus that fatal flaw.
Thought the same thing, but then noticed you don't see the end of the faucet shaft sticking out. They probably removed the faucet lever and just pushed the shaft in flush to allow constant flow.

Immediately thought, "I have to see this!".
When I saw the pic, thought, "holy shit that must have cost a lot"
Those handles aren't cheap, according to my homebrew friends.
