We all know there's no good reason to build cylindrical beer coolers that silently appear out of the ground in your backyard. But that hasn't stopped a bunch of German guys, engineers we assume, from building their own and posting the videos to YouTube.

Actually in our part of the world, having an underground beer cooler does have one good reason. The temperature from approx 1m down and below is a constant 7°C (around 44°F) all year round. In denmark, we actually have people who dig simple "earth-cooled beer"-holes, who make it a sport to find just the right hole-depth for the specific type of beer ;) The above is kind of the deluxe version of this I would say. :)
