Description
I made a tiny Guinness rattle for my baby for St. Patrick's Day.
It looks like a real pint and can easily be printed in colors even without MMU/AMS by pausing and changing the filament colors.
I started with silver (or transparent) > dark brown (or black) > light beige (or white).
If done as a baby toy, make sure to be generous with perimeters (3 walls at least) and lightning pattern 15%, so you can drop a ball or anything that can rattle inside while it's printing. A good spot to drop the object is when it does the final pause from dark brown (ale) to light beige (foam).

You can randomize the seam so it's not a visible line behind it.
