The widget is the thingie that gives you the creamy foam, also appears in cans of Johns Smiths, Boddingtons, Murpys, Guinness and so on.
Canned beers with widgets in them have another thing in common, they taste far better from taps, don't buy them in a store, buy them at the pub.
By the way, though my avatar might indicate so, I am not a citizen of Germany, though my ancestry have a branch in this great nation. Originally Posted by wilpuri. Hehehehehe hahahahhahahaha Just a minute. Ehehehe agahahhahahah. Haha I only recently started drinking beer.

Who invented the beer widget? The beer widget didn't appear in the United States until around Does Guinness still use a widget? Yes, though what kind of widget has changed a bit. Guinness has been using a floating widget since , but switched back to a fixed widget system in due to supply issues caused by COVID They have plans to bring back the floating widget in , barring any further challenges.
What does a widget accomplish? A beer widget creates a taste in a can that's close to a real draft. British, Irish, Scottish and Welsh beer is not as heavily carbonated as American beer, so when their brews are bottled, there's no head when poured. This is also why these countries are the only ones who use this technology. Do beer glasses have widgets? Some beer glasses have a nucleation point or an etched pattern on the inside bottom of the glass, which helps release the beer's dissolved CO2 in the form of bubbles.
Breweries typically use carbon dioxide to give a beer its quintessential bitter fizz, but when a drink calls for a sweeter, silkier experience — such as the experience you get when drinking a Guinness — brewers infuse the ale with nitrogen rather than with carbon dioxide. Nitrogen bubbles are smaller than CO 2 bubbles, so the resulting head and taste is smoother and more delicate.
Nitrogen gas also doesn't easily dissolve in water , so when you crack open a beer, most of the gas is released into the air but the foamy bubbles in the head still remain. This — along with the smaller bubbles — gives the brew a thicker, more velvety "mouthfeel" without the acidic bite of carbonation with CO 2. Because of the fleeting nature of nitrogen gas in liquid, it's really hard to maintain tasty levels of the gas in packaged beers once you open them.
The popularity of widgets have caught on since Guinness introduced them in the late 80s. So go crack a cold one and thank that little plastic sphere for delivering your delicious, velvety brew. Follow Tech Insider on Facebook and Twitter.
