Christmas Gifts for Beer Drinkers: Day 2 - the Beer Blaster

Friday, December 5th, 2008

Have you ever thought to yourself: “Self, you should fill a super-soaker up with beer and then shoot your friends in the mouth!”?  I can’t say that i’ve ever thought that either, but after seeing this product, i wish i had.  Presenting the second in our daily Beer Drinkers Christmas Gift feature: The Beer Blaster

 Here is the description from their site:

The Beer Blaster is a handheld high-velocity drink delivery system. Translation? It’s a Beer Gun. Harnessing the carbonation power of canned drinks, the blaster can shoot your beverage of choice over 10 feet. A favorite on college campuses, the Beer Blaster is sweeping the party scene.

I’m not sure about “sweeping the party scene.” My party activity of choice is still drinking the beer and not shooting it, but this might come in handy towards the end of the night when things get out of hand.  Also, after looking at their site, i’ve got to say I’ve got a fond place in my heart for these innovative drinkers starting their own small business.  Buy a Beer Blaster and keep the small businesses of America afloat!

Drunken fun on your fridge!

Monday, November 17th, 2008

Have you ever wanted to pour your booze through an elaborate contraption attached to your fridge before drinking?  Well the Chugulug Drinks Factory seems to be the answer.  I think Gizmodo had the best tagline: If Rube Goldberg Were an Underage Girl You Wanted to Get Drunk.

The setup comes with the following and magnets to your fridge for easy access:

 

  • 2 x vortex funnels – where you pour in your booze and mixer
  • 1 x ‘the mill’ – the paddles mix you drink as it goes though
  • 1 x ‘the propeller’ – aerates and churns you drink to perfection
  • 1 x ‘the tank’ – fills up as the multi coloured balls splash around
  • 1 x ‘the tap’ – where your perfect drink is stored ( you can also add ice here to chill it!)

Some awesome links for all things beer:

Hot girls of Oktoberfest - only the finest German hotties and beer wenches girls

Beer Festivals Calendar - Just because Oktober is almost over, doesn’t mean there aren’t plenty of beer events out there. There’s dozens in November, two right here in San Diego even.

Quad Pong Nation - We’ve written about our friends at OnFire beer pong tables, well it seems they;ve joined forces with College Tonight to launch a great new company, TheQuad.com. They’re holding a national series of beer pong tournaments, so sign up and assert your dominance in your town or city. And go check out their new line of lightweight, collapsible beer pong tables.

Name that Beer Label - if you can’t get 18/18 on this quiz, you should be ashamed.

Notsoberfest 2008: Burning bridges, dousing that fire with malt liquor

Monday, October 27th, 2008

Last weekend we celebrated P.J.’s 24th by renting out a warehouse and going apeshit. Our marketing guy and resident drunk, this party needed to represent every part of his ridiculous existence. Around 100 rowdy hooligans showed up to rage, paint, crush, drink, dance, bang and fight into the early morning. Supplies required for such an event:

  • 100 year old lumber mill, rooftop bbq, graffiti room,
  • Two kegs, 12 handles, thirty-six 40oz’s of malt liquor, 50 bottles of homebrew
  • One 6 ft tall pinata
  • DJ spinning nasty baby-making House
  • 5 beer pong tables, 30 person flip cup game, beer bong
  • Paint, spraypaint, paint pens, pig’s blood

The original plan was for all the drunk asses to crash in the warehouse, so we could all get crazy without getting behind the wheel. Destruction ensued: the walls, livers, dance floor, massive pinata, furniture, nothing was safe. And leave it to P.J. to be the only person we know to get kicked out of his own birthday party.


All in all, the first inaugural Notsoberfest was a hit and next year’s should be even wilder. Check out the photo gallery and see it for yourself.

Edward Forty Hands: How to play

Wednesday, August 6th, 2008

Edward 40 Hands is a great time had by all…well, all who can drink two 40’s. If you can’t, read on anyways because we have another option for you. According to wikipedia (the source of all truth) the game is also known as “80 oz to freedom” and “The 40 Challenge.” Whatever you call it, here’s the rules:

1. Have a friend duct tape a 40 oz of malt liquor to each hand (or both hands to one 40oz if you’re taking it easy). The last person to tape in will have a harder time, but with some ingenuity they can manage.

2. Nobody can remove the 40’s from their hands until they’re finished drinking all 80 ounces of beer.

That’s it, those essentially are the two official rules. You can add some competition to the game by racing to finish, but completing the game is a solid accomplishment, so I wouldn’t worry about racing. You are allowed to go to the bathroom, answer the phone, have a smoke, whatever - that is, as long as your hands are still taped to those quickly-warming 40oz beers. If you can do that, cheers. It’s funny though, I’ve seen some very awkward times when a slow-drinking gent has to request a male friend to pull his pants zipper down. And that’s really just half the battle to emptying the bladder. The other half requires a weird wiggle dance…I guess you’ll figure it out if you have to.

The true beauty of the 40cozy is displayed when you use two 40cozy’s, one on each hand. With these on your paws, you’ll be able to take as long as you want, as your beer won’t become warm for a long time. The only thing that will rush your drinking is the increasing urge to urinate.

Don’t worry about the duct tape ruining the 40cozy’s, they come out looking great afterward. Next time you and your friends are sitting around with nothing to do, go buy a case of 40’s and strap up. Drink strong!
