Ikea Symfonisk Bookshelf WiFi Speaker The Good A
simple, portable device powered by 4 AA
batteries, the Fizzics Waytap makes bottled beer
taste more like it came from the tap. It's
slimmer, more attractive, and less expensive than
the original Fizzics. The Bad Like the original,
the Waytap doesn't produce an exact replica of
draft beer. It mutes bitter flavors and smoothes
the texture of your beer -- which can hide its
unique characteristics. Unlike the original
Fizzics, the Waytap can't fit growlers.
15
The Bottom Line A fun product if you like
tinkering with beer and value an attractive pour,
the Fizzics Waytap is reasonably priced and
easy-to- use -- just don't expect perfect draft
beer.

CNET CNET Home Smart Home Fizzics Waytap Six
of us gathered around the Fizzics Waytap. We each
held two glasses of Avery's White Rascal -- a
Belgian-Style White Ale with notes of coriander
and orange peel. One glass came straight from the
bottle, the other glass was poured through
Fizzics. The 130 (100, AU175) Fizzics Waytap
uses sound waves to shake up the bubbles of your
beer. The goal -- make bottled beer taste more
like it came from the tap at your favorite bar.
It's the same tech as the original 170 (135,
AU230) Fizzics we tested last year, but the
Waytap sports a slimmed down, classier
design. We sipped from both glasses, and the
results confirmed my suspicions -- for better and
for worse, the Waytap works as well as the
original Fizzics, smoothing out the flavor of
your beer with the power of science. This process
accents sweeter flavors, and mutes the bitter end
of the taste spectrum. It makes the beer bubblier
and adds a nice head to make it appear like it
was poured from the tap, but it's not quite the
same thing. Our group was split on the results
-- three preferred the White Rascal straight from
the bottle (including me), three liked the
Fizzics version better. The Waytap doesn't fix
my issues with the original Fizzics, but it's
still a good product, and now it looks better and
costs less. So if you like experimenting with
your beer and especially if you value sweeter
flavors -- I'm happy to recommend the reasonably
priced 130 Fizzics Waytap. If you're looking
for an exact replica of beer on tap, or if you
want to stick with the beer as the brewer
intended, this isn't the product for you.

11 More The science of Fizzics Any skepticism
around this product is of course justified. Using
sound -- not carbon dioxide or any other gases or
flavorings -- to improve the taste of bottled
beer sounds like a complete load of crap. Check
out my review of the original -- after my first
Fizzics beer, I was pleasantly surprised to say
the least. Fizzics isn't pseudo-science or a
simple placebo effect, it really does make a
difference. As it turns out, the science of
Fizzics -- the same as in the Waytap -- is
fundamentally sound. Brewing laboratories use
machines called sonicator baths create a similar
effect. Those labs do it to flatten the beer for
tests, but the beer's fizz rises dramatically
when sonication first starts. I suspect the
Waytap does something similar, just in much
smaller doses. Since it doesn't use any gas
canisters or kegs, part of the appeal of the
Waytap -- like the Fizzics -- is how simple it is
to set up and use. You need four AA batteries,
your bottle or can of beer, and a glass. That's
it. Pop off the Waytap's lid by pressing the
button on the front, put your open can or bottle
on the base, then replace the lid -- making sure
the metal hose in the center runs into your
beer. Grab your glass and pull the handle.

Put your beer on the base and replace the lid.
Make sure the hose goes into your bottle or
can. Chris Monroe/CNET The Waytap gently pours
your beer while agitating the carbonation with
sound. Fizzics digitally controls the flow while
it pours and keeps most of the carbonation
intact by keeping the bottle under pressure. When
your glass is just about full, push the handle
away from you and the Waytap will up the sound
intensity and add a frothy head to the top of
your glass. You can clean the Waytap just by
running a glass of warm water through the system.
The mat and base also separate so you can hand
wash them. On average, it took me two to three
minutes after I poured one beer before I was
ready to pour the next -- and that's when I was
using two different beers. If you're pouring
multiple bottles of a single beer for guests,
there's no need to clean between bottles. You
can buy the attractive, easy-to-use Fizzics
Waytap for 130 from Brookstone, Amazon, and in
certain Target and Best Buy stores. Right now,
the Waytap is only available at US retailers, but
Fizzics.com will ship it anywhere in the
world. Continue to next page 01 02 Comparable
