Greatest beer glass ever? No. They need a 40oz version.

Here is a great valentines gift for your drunken significant other:

A Hand-blown-glass, upside-down beer bottle.  Its called hopsidedown and it reminds me a lot of one of our earlier christmas gifts for drunks selections.  As with those other glasses, the main problem with this is you can only pour about half a bottle of beer into these little things.  That’s fine if you’re a 12-year-old, but I’m only getting one of these when they make a version modeled after a 40.

Ain’t no Party Like a Shotgun Party

shotgun-beer-can-opener

I happened upon one of these bad boys at a party, and this is definitely the way to throw back a few beers. From across the room, I saw this gorgeous shotgun can opener in action. There was a radiant glow surrounding her as she crushed a beer in 4 seconds. I knew it was love at first site.

The fine people at ShotgunParty.com have created a brilliant keychain with a bottle opener and a hook that opens cans for shotgunning. If you don’t know what that is, watch this video:

From what I’ve seen out there in the field, the art of shotgunning a beer is slipping away, losing its ground with the younger generations. And it’s pretty damn embarassing when you see someone try to open a beer for shotgunning purposes, usually by jabbing a knife into it and hosing everything within 5 yards in beer spray. That’s why this keychain is so damned handy. It’s pretty solid at minimizing the spray, plus people really dig on it. You can pick 3 up for $10, which is worth it just to save all that lost beer from your amateur shotgun prepping.
