I am interested in hosting a Bockfest in spring, similar to that hosted by the Schell's brewery in New Ulm, MN. Unfortunately, they have a particular tool that I CANNOT find! It's a long, wooden-handled, cast-iron implement. The iron end is a long, thick, solid cylinder. It gets put into coals until it is redhot, then the beers get "poked" by it, creating a beautiful caramel-y head.

I've seen a similar implement on Cooking with Julia: She used it to return a pot of water to boiling almost instantly by first heating the iron over the burner. She calls it a "buffalo iron".

Does anyone know where I might get my hands on one of these?
