This beer tank is truly beyond description. As far as point of sale displays go, this [Guinness beer tank](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ukrainian-spirit) is one of the most original and amazing displays out.

The beer tank display uses all different products from Guinness to make up a giant tank display of Guinness goodness. The wheels are made of [kegs of varying sizes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/athome-beer-keg-machine) and the treads are made of a poster surrounding the kegs.

The body is geometrically very close to an actual tank and is made up of cases of Guinness products. The entrance where there would typically be a hatch is made of a barrel and the all-important cannon is made of a black tube with [Guinness branding](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/guinness-x-lazy-oaf-collection) on it. If they were looking to show that Guinness is a force to be reckoned with, they certainly accomplished their goal.
