Beer Bubbles Really Do Sink
Galvatron writes "A group of researchers at Stanford have shown that, despite being lighter than the beer itself, bubbles can actually slide down the sides of glasses. So, if you see it happen, it's not just that you've had too much to drink. For a description of methodology and an explanation of why it works, see the article."

This one. The researchers here appear to be putting an academic imprimateur on the model discussed in 2000.
But what is the SIGnificance?

What these researchers have described is anomaly in gas-liquid mixing. In the field of chemical engineering, the mixing and flow properities of gas-liquid reactions are ongoing research subjects for the last several decades, particularly in fluidized bed reactors. Fluidized bed reactors are very important in the production of a wide variety of chemicals. While the test subject may have been fun for them to explore, it may hold clues into how gases and liquids mix in a reactor and this back-mixing may other researchers develop more accurate theories and simulations. These simulations then lead to better processes.
Well, there's spam egg sausage and spam, that's not got much spam in it.
