That's so... wrong. But a great anagram.
It also reminded me of a story that I once heard about Louis XVI (?)
having installed three taps over his bathtub, for cold and hot water,
and for champagne. Unfortunately I don't remember any details, and I
don't seem to have the right keywords for Google to help me out here.
What I did find was a vacation ad for a luxury cottage in Kendenup,
Western Australia, where it says: "The bathroom features a sunken spa
with champagne on tap, literally champagne on tap! (This must be
preordered)." Preordered, so they can connect a fresh keg before you
check in, I guess.
