Butterbeer Puzzle, the Butterbeer barrel as a 3D brainteaser

Butterbeer Puzzle is a 3D interlocking wooden brainteaser inspired by the famous wizarding beverage. The challenge is to figure out how to take the barrel apart piece by piece, then — the harder step — reassemble it into its original shape. The barrel is made of several non-identical wooden pieces, one of which acts as a "key" to unlock the whole construction.

A decorative brainteaser, suitable from age 10

Butterbeer Puzzle is made of quality wood, letting it double as a decorative desk or shelf piece once solved. Recommended for ages 10 and up, it takes an average of 10 to 20 minutes to solve, with reassembly potentially taking longer if you haven't tracked the order of disassembly. Professor Puzzle offers a video solution on its YouTube channel for anyone who gets stumped.
