8 awesome drinking accessories you probably need


Sometimes (okay, rarely) a bottle of beer isn’t enough and we need something more to passionately celebrate or lovingly support our love of drinking. And what’s better than sweet drinking accessories? Whether it’s because they’re sneaky, sleek or funny, here are some of the coolest drinking accessories you can buy outside of your local Spencer’s.

8 The Beer Belly


What is it? This product emulates a glorious, man status-worthy, beer belly. Just think of how many beers it would take to forge this flamboyantly-sculpted icon of manhood. Instead, you only need to shell out $29.95 to drink incognito at places like:

— A funeral
— Your girlfriend’s parent’s place
— Your child’s graduation

Where can I get it? Amazon.

7 Granite Whiskey Stones


What is it? These are solid granite stones from the Beaches of New Hampshire that chill your whiskey without diluting it like that bastard ice would. Just think of them as rechargeable ice cubes. Buy six of these classy stones for about $30. Or, you could just break a few pieces off the expensive countertop at your friend’s pad.

6 iPhone Case With Bottle Opener


What is it? There wasn’t an app for that, so this company made a case for it. With it, you can open up beer bottles with ease. Hell, the case might even save your phone’s delicate inner electronics from all the frothy splash back.

5 The Sly Soda Can Sleeve


What is it? You just can’t get enough, can you? This makes your beer look like it’s a can of soda! Unfortunately, your breath will still smell like sweaty malted barley and hops.

4 The Reef Dram Sandal

Where can I get it? Uncrate.

3 The Kooler Klub Drink Dispenser


What is it? Are you a fan of golf? Bring some solo cups and get ready to dispense wisdom, putt-putt pwnage and of course, some booze. This would be good for mini-golf, the driving range and any country club where you don’t feel like paying for drinks.

2 Shot Glass Chess Set


What is it? This drinking game is perfect for (a) the individual who is good at chess and wants to own their friend and (b) the friend who is terrible at chess and wants to get destroyed in more than way than one.
