Okay, what's going on here? If this was once a thing, how did it ever go away?

My question exactly. And where did it occur? How do we bring it back? And how about a warm brandy dispenser, like the ones delivering hot coffee?

Okay, Reddit says
So perhaps it was a one off for a trade fair? I'm for bringing them back and putting them in IT offices.

Now I can't say I've ever seen one of those in the wild, but it sure looks to be a money maker?

I have seen pictures of Saki machines in Japan. Wish I would have gone there as a kid.

Why does she have just a bra on? Is she expecting something?

Peanut Butter Whiskey, could that be like a dessert after dinner drink?

something to wake you up in the morning, A Coffee Martini.

Unlikely as it sounds, we actually had something similar in the billets I lived in at Presidio San Francisco. It only sold canned beer and had an unfortunate tendency to be empty by late Friday evening of the week it was refilled. Then it would remain empty for at least another week. Eventually, the post commander ordered that the vending machines be filled with nothing but soft drinks, largely due to the tendency of First Sergeants to be the major reason for their emptying. However, in celebration of the link above, the most popular flavor post-beer was red cream soda. I'd never encountered such a thing before but it got the Southern boys really excited. Vanilla flavored soda water with red food coloring. Odd.

Those age dated Tillamooks are da bomb. I can't recall if it was the 2014 or 2015 but wow.

Howard, please make it your mission to come up with a new name for that drink. No matter how great a drink it is, if it is not made of gin and dry vermouth, it is not a martini! Cheers!

That looks neat, it should be in every break room.

So what do you call it?

I was installing an alarm system in a beer warehouse. The break room had actually taps working.
