Description
An Iron tripod that supports a rotating disc fitted with 16 different coloured glass windows, with numbers above. A small shelf extends from the centre to hold a glass of beer. As the wheel rotates the different windows pass over a hole so they are back lit. The colour of the beer can then be compared and contrasted.
