"In the third and fourth photos there's a barely visible seam on the inner and outer faces (look for a subtle change in coloring, lighter above and darker below). The fact that the wood grain runs around the entirety of the seat rather than showing end grain on the top or sides makes me think it's a veneer at best or a vinyl wrap at worst. It would be tough to apply a veneer to the contoured surfaces so I'd expect vinyl, hydro dip, or maybe veneer that's been steamed and formed in place under high pressure.Good looking and a fun puzzle!"

"It appears they've slapped a label onto the same dispenser bottles used by Star San: https://www.morebeer.com/products/star-san-sanitizer-16-oz.html"

"Pouring a baseboard beverage from one container to another does a tremendous benefit to the drinker. Releasing some of the CO2 trapped in solution during the act of pouring saves it from releasing in your stomach and the bloating/belching that follows. Interesting concept though!"

"Love the wrap concept but a $20 plastic-based dispenser seems totally incongruous with the product held within. A cardboard box with a serrated metal strip may not be as "designey," but it's remarkably efficient from a production standpoint, and can utilize recycled cardboard and cans for it's requisite parts."
