Beer...Beer Foam...Turd"

 turd/tərd/Noun1. A lump of excrement.

Who doesn't enjoy an ice cold pint of beer? Sometimes even a little foam at the top doesn't bother me...but a turd floating near the surface surely does. The Asahi Beer Hall designed by the French architect, Philippe Starck, very vividly displays a delightful golden turd upon the roof of the modern office structure in Tokyo, Japan. Supposedly, the building itself is a beer glass and the 'turd' is the foam, but I would say a swing and a miss, Mr. Starck. Weighing in around 300 tons, that is one large nightmare of a turd. Can you spot the resemblance below?
