tannkontroller

Tannkortroller, also known as tannkontroller or tannhest, was a popular Norwegian novelty device in the mid-20th century. The device was essentially a wooden or plastic box with a metal rod or pedal attached to a spring-loaded mechanism. When a glass of spruce beer or other tannin-rich beverages was placed on the box, a trigger or pedal on the device was pressed, causing the drink to be vigorously shaken or chugged.

The tannkortroller was often used at social gatherings and parties, particularly during the winter months in Norway. Its amused users would refill the glass by pressing the pedal or trigger repeatedly, creating a spectacle and generating laughter among those present. In the1950s and 1960s, these devices were widely available in Norway, particularly among urban populations.

The tannkortroller typically consisted of a small box, around 10-15 cm (4-6 inches) in width and 5-7 cm (2-3 inches) in height. The mechanism would be powered by a spring, and the container would be made of wood, plastic, or ceramic. According to local Varme Danish sources, an inhabitant claimed using one manufactured approximately 200 items, affirming the infamous seem-to-drive need of locals

In the 1960s and 1970s, with the broader availability of carbonated beverages and aluminum cans, the use of tannkortroller gradually declined in popularity, eventually becoming a relic of past times in Norway.
