“Not half bad... I've never faced a foe who's above average. But! Sharpcask will put a quick stop to your lucky run! Remember Gobblick? Well, Sharpcask is full of FAR more Spite Bulbs! He's on an entirely different level of terrifying strength. Enjoy...”
Ecks, Mario & Luigi: Brothership

Sharpcask is a high-ranking member of the Zok Troops who appears in Mario & Luigi: Brothership. He is a robotic, anthropomorphic barrel who is quite stronger than Gobblick, as stated by Ecks due to the fact that he has gobbled up more Spite Bulbs than Gobblick. His name is compounded from "sharp" and "cask."

In battle, Sharpcask starts off by rolling into Mario and Luigi, an attack that the Mario Bros. must dodge. The Bros. can counterattack him during his attack by jumping on him. When Sharpcask's HP gets cut in a quarter, he will restore a little HP and guard himself. This later requires Luigi Logic to pile up some boxes on Sharpcask by adjusting a treadmill to deal a lot of damage. Following that, Luigi will move the treadmill to cause Sharpcask to fall. This stuns him for a short time. After a quarter of Sharpcask's HP is left, Ecks will appear and raises his power and defense by one stage. Additionally, Sharpcask can also throw barrels at the Mario Bros., and the brothers must dodge them. Following that, he will charge at either Bro., who must dodge the attack or counterattack him. Once his HP is almost gone, Sharpcask will become enraged. Defeating him rewards the Sharpcask Hammer and some Sprite Bulbs.

Sharpcask can later be fought in a stronger, Glohmy form known as Glohm Sharpcask.
