The Bottle Cap Wrench by Craftsman is manliness incarnate. Drop forged in the same USA factories as Craftsman tools it carries the same unconditional guarantee as it’s brethren: If any Craftsman hand tool ever fails to provide complete satisfaction, Return it to any Sears store or other Craftsman outlet in the United States for free repair or replacement.
After some thorough Gear Patrol style testing (refer to pics) we’d be shocked if you ever need to take advantage of the warranty, but impressive none the less. From a functional standpoint the Bottle Cap Wrench features patent pending fulcrum design, for both “lift up or push down removal”. With either method it elicited “wooowwws” and “where do I get one?” from everyone who tried it. Bottle caps were surrendering to the Cap Wrench quicker than the French to…well anyone and everyone.
Admittedly bottle openers are simple beast, but this is the best one we’ve ever tried. It’s a necessary addition for any beer man. The solid heft should also allow you to fend off any party crashers with ease.
Author’s Note: Sears offers the Bottle Cap Wrench with engraving. We suggest this as an excellent groomsman gift or Xmas gift for your buddies.
There’s something amazing about sitting down at a bar, ordering a Guinness, and knowing you’re about to start sipping that wonderful, flat, thick mass. It’s like breakfast, but better.
For a special anniversary, the brewery wants to offer you a different experience, so it’s releasing Guinness 250 Anniversary Stout. The 5-percent ABV brew will feature carbonation instead of Guinness Draught’s traditional nitrogen and carbon dioxide making for a different taste (and easing the life of bartenders everywhere)
“This is more about refreshment and zing,” Guinness master brewer Fergal Murray told MSNBC.com.
You can get Guinness 250 starting on April 24 for roughly six months. So Guinness for breakfast, Guinness 250 for lunch?
Be on the look out for this new beer. I’m sure it’s tasty. I had some blackberry homebrew at the St Paddy’s Day parade this year that was awesome.
HISTORY: “The blackberries we use in Samuel Adams® Blackberry Witbier are perfect for this brew. They deliver a subtle sweetness that balances the traditional citrus flavors from the witbier. The blackberries used in Samuel Adams Blackberry Witbier are sourced from family farms, located at the foot of the Oregon Trail and Cascade Mountains in Western Oregon, where they have been growing some of the best blackberries in the world for centuries. By bringing the blackberries, orange and coriander together with an appealing malt character and a spiciness from the hops, we’ve brewed a flavorful beer with a smooth finish that’s both sweet and tart.” Continue reading ‘Gunaxin beer review: Samuel Adams Blackberry Witbier’
Tired of replacing your tap handle every time you switch out kegs? Check out Tap Boards ($22). Made from wood with chalkboard inserts, these boards let you simply erase and re-label when it’s time to check out a new brew — saving you from accumulating a bar-worthy stack of used handles.
I had a great Halloween in NOLA. Many, many thanks to Flying Dog and Mister Hunter S. Thompson for the inspiration. Thanks to Beerfest (a bar full of taps on Bourbon St.) for having Flying Dog on tap.
What do you do if you’re in New Orleans during Halloween? Dress up like Dr. Gonzo, that’s what! Brad was there and spent the last day of October in style. And always remember to bring your trusty attorney with you, especially whilst spending Halloween in The Big Easy.
And friend of Flying Dog Siobhan dressed up like our Doggie Style Classic Pale Ale and partied the night away with us during our Flying Dog Pub Crawl down “The Gauntlet” in scenic Frederick, Maryland. Now we don’t want to presuppose anything, but you’re in for a pretty good night if you’re dressed up as anything called “Doggie Style”.
We sort of sprung this concept on you people a little late this year, but rest assured there will be a contest next year, so get started on your costume and win some schtuff.
