Frozen beer foam!

(WARNING: Geekologie potentially NSFW due to language)

Japanese brewer Kirin has just introduced Ichiban Shibori Frozen Draft, a brew with a soft-serve dollop of frozen beer foam on top to keep all the liquid below nice and cool. The machine responsible, which will be released in Japan next month, works by frothing a mixture of beer and air, then flash-freezing it to 23-degrees Fahrenheit and extruding it out like the ice-cream machine at an all-you-can-eat buffet. Mmmm, I'm gonna go puke in the bathroom to make room for more crab legs!
 
I wonder if you can do the same thing at home with some beer, a bit of liquid nitrogen, and furious whisking....
