The first public beer-fountain of the world

Elected officials in Žalec, Slovenia, population 4,878, say they've decided to build a large, $400,000 fountain in the square that will spray beer instead of water, because why not? The aim is to attract tourists to the region, already known as the “Valley of Green Gold” because of all its hops, with a sort of self-serve public tap that they say will be the continent's first. The fountain will dispense a variety of Slovenian beers priced at six euros apiece (about $7).
