Default Why physics is useful

If you place a beer in a bucket of ice, it will take a long time to chill.

However, if you place the bottle in a bucket of ice and spin it at varying speeds (spin, it slows down, spin again), it will chill within minutes and it will not foam up since there wont be any pressure pulses/waves going through it.

I'm sure you hillbillie like absolm can come up with a small electric motor powered device to make the beer spin on its own.
