I see hundreds of booze pictures throughout the course of a week. Whether it’s a funny drunk guy, a new product, or a behind the scene photo from a brewery, they offer a good way alleviate boredom. Every Friday I bring you a sample of this collection. Be honest, you weren’t planning to do any work, were you? If you want more info on any of them, leave a comment about it and I’ll fill you in on what details I have. If you come across something clever, interesting, or hilarious, send it to me at colin@guyism.com or @FlintSkinny. I can’t promise it gets posted, but I’ll certainly take a look.

Chalk up another win for the canned beer industry. Redhook, one of America’s first craft breweries, has finally cave and abandoned their bottle and keg only stance. They are now offering Long Hammer IPA in cans.

While some breweries tout the ease of recycling, cost savings, or shipping benefits, Redhook Brewery has made the switch for the drinkers. It’s summer, so any self-respecting person outside of Arizona should be spending as much time outside as possible. Unfortunately bottles aren’t idea for beaches or bike rides. That’s where cans come in to play. They’re easy to pack, won’t break, and can be recycled on the top of your head.

With this move, Redhook joins 184 other craft breweries who are currently offering at least one option in a can. To find out who else is cranking out beach beers, check out CraftCans.com.

The new cover of French Vogue features the beautiful Karmen Pedaru, but, uh… I think she’s got something on her face.

The new cover of French Vogue features the beautiful Karmen Pedaru, but, uh… I think she’s got something on her face.

Look; I know I’m the girl here and this is supposed to be my thing, but I can’t keep up with fashion. If you need a vivid mental image to drive that point home: I still wear Uggs. With everything. Because those things are the loophole in the rule that says you can’t wear slippers out of the house, and I’ll be damned if I let someone take that away from me.

But you know what? If wiping your face with the towel you just used to check your oil is what’s in right now, then I seriously must have missed a few chapters and I’m totally cool with it if fashion just wants to go ahead without me. As long as someone can let me know when we get to the trend where it’s okay to wear my Forever Lazy to the supermarket. I’ve got a judgmental deli counter employee to whom I’d like to prove a point.

As I was clearing out my Google Reader favorites, I kept noticing products that I meant to share with the Guyism readers. They kept getting pushed to the back burner though. Well, it’s time to unleash them on the world. I’ve put together seven of my favorite drinking related items from the Think Geek shop. They’re all things I’ve either bought or considered buying, so don’t feel bad if you secretly want some of them.

7 Collapsible shot glass

Perfect for camping trips or ensuring that you don’t get stuck with the undersized shot glass when you’re playing an away game power hour. $5

6 Ice Shot Glasses

If you’re as lazy as I am, you can rest easy knowing you’ll never have to wash your shot glasses again. Plus, the added chill will make even the lowest shelf vodka taste like you ran it through a Brita filter a few times. $8

5 Portable Cup Holder

Don’t be fooled by the Starbucks cup, this thing is clearly made with drinkers in mine. You’ll never lose your side-beer in the sea of half-empty cans on the beer pong table with this simple contraption. $20

4

If you’ve ever skipped taking a flask with you because you were afraid of losing it, despair no more. These flexible pouches are easy to hide and easier to throw away. Plus they give you the magical ability to hold things without your thumb. $7

3 Prescription Flask

They don’t call it grandpa’s cough medicine for nothing. You’re gonna need a prescription to fill that addiction. $20

2 Wine Tasting Party

Everyone has a friend that pretends like they know all there is to know about wine. What better way to make them look like an idiot than to have a blind taste test party? It’s also a great way to play *hide the roofie. $7



Guyism in no way endorses the use of roofies in combination with wine…unless you’re into it.

1 Molecular Cocktails Starter Kit

Chemistry used to just be for nerds, but now it’s perfect for full blown alcoholics. All the hottest cocktail bars are toying with molecular gastronomy, so why not try it yourself? $48

Sriracha has almost limitless uses. It livens up bland foods, adds just enough spice to delicious foods, and even makes a mean lollipop. But did you know it’s good for you too? Is there anything cock sauce can’t do?

The female body comes in many shapes and sizes, some (like a medium-sized hourglass) are generally pleasing to a man and others (like a large eggplant) aren’t. But have you ever noticed a woman who has a natural affinity for knowing how to dress sexy? It gives her attractiveness and femininity a serious edge. And then sometimes there are girls who will don an unconventional outfit or piece of clothing that makes them look incredible even if they don’t realize it. Here are some things we love to see women wearing (besides nothing at all, of course). What are some of your favorite outfits on the ladies?

7 Our Clothes

Whether it’s collared button-down shirts, mesh shorts or a full-on lumberjack outfit (sans beard, thank you very much), you look hot in our clothing. Just leave the banana hammocks to us. Actually, no…no one should ever wear a banana hammock.

6 Yoga Pants

Soft, form-fitting and allowing a full range of motion and flexibility, yoga pants are the ultimate pants when it comes to covering up every inch of leg flesh and still being fun to look at. Even if you don’t do yoga, you can feel free to wear these around us any old time.

5 Suspenders/Overalls

There’s just something about these…and so God help me, I don’t quite know what that is. Maybe it’s the fact that overalls and suspenders unhook so easily? Maybe it’s because they accentuate the bust? Whatever it is, me-likee.

4 Braless

Free-boobing it is wonderful thing, but it should be used sparingly. Do you know what happens when women start forgoing their over-the-shoulder-boulder-holder at all times? Let me enlighten you:


-People get boob-slapped in the face

-When the boobs aren’t busy being unleashed they’re sagging at an accelerated rate

-Her new status as a free-boober automatically makes her associated with the likes of a bra-burning hippie


So, while we do enjoy it, let’s keep this one under wraps and only bust it out for special occasions.

3 Mini Skirts/Hot Pants/Short Shorts

Mini-skirts are definitely attention grabbers. But since men are visual beasts, don’t wear one of these unless you want to turn some heads. Because like the Amish, we hope you’ll turn the other cheek too.

2 Clothes That Don’t Fit

Save for a lady with a distinct muffin top and absolutely no sense of her waist size, outfits that are just a smidge too tight can look pretty hot on a girl. Same goes for baggy clothes, because it adds a layer of mystery to what’s going on inside.

1 The Hand Bra

Before I talk about hand bras, I need to make sure you know that the person in the above photo is a man. Okay, moving on…

Hand-bras are great. I think they’re better than underboob, sideboob, topboob, and tripleboob (the only documented case of this was in Total Recall, so don’t get your hopes up) combined. And bonus points if the surface area of her hands just don’t cover it.

Phusion Projects is best known for creating Satan’s favorite potent potable, Four Loko. Their newest developement is a malt beverage named Moskato Life that is meant to taste like moscato wine.

Moskato Life is a combination of light carbonation and sweetness that delivers on consumer’s desire for varied drink choices. Packaged in a 750 ml bottle at 6 percent alcohol by volume (ABV), Moskato Life is available in two flavors – Moscato and Rose. The product is available now in select markets with national availability by the summer’s end.

In developing Moskato Life, Phusion studied the gain in popularity of moscato wine, best known for its light-bodied, sweet taste and recent recognition in the hip-hop and urban community. Traditionally an after-dinner wine, moscato has taken up new residency as a more mainstream beverage among the under 40 crowd.

I’ll be honest with you, I hate moscato wine. It’s ridiculously sweet and often times too thick (that’s never what she said). Time after time servers have suggested that even if I don’t typically like it, I’ll probably enjoy this particular one. Sorry chief, you’re not getting any more money from me for something I know I don’t like. That said, I’ll be giving Moskato Life a shot. It’s not actually wine, so I’m sayin’ there’s a chance. I mean if the hip-hop crowd likes it, how could it possibly be bad?

Every time I see an attempt at viral advertising, I wince a little, as if someone were throwing a punch at me of obnoxious marketing. But this video from Cape Cod Potato Chips featuring a flock of seagulls playing Flock of Seagulls’ “I Ran” absolutely nailed it.

My only problem with this is the lack of prices for “team memorabilia” because most fans have 1000s of dollars worth of stuff just waiting to go up somewhere. The bottom line though, better keep your wedding guest list short, because you’re going to need all the spare cash you’ve got for your man cave.

Just two days after posting a hilarious video about a guy trying to get ketchup out of a bottle, I find out people from MIT have solved that problem forever. This non-stick ketchup bottle will lead to peaceful dinners everywhere.

Admittedly I haven’t seen a glass bottle of ketchup in about three years, but that doesn’t make me any less excited to know that the problem has officially been solved. It’s good to know that at the end of the day, man still comes out on top. Plus, the uses for this technology doesn’t stop, or start for that matter, with condiments.

Originally, Smith’s team, which has been working for years now on developing various types of surface coatings, was pursuing different aims. “We were really interested in–and still are–using this coating for anti-icing, or for preventing clogs that form in oil and gas lines, or for non-wetting applications like, say, on windshields,” Smith says. “Somehow this sparked the idea of putting it in food bottles. It could be great just for its slippery properties. Plus, most of these other applications have a much longer time to market; we realized we could make this coating for bottles that is pretty much ready. I mean, it is ready.” As you can see.

There are about 65,000 bars in America. Even if it wasn’t subjective, it would be impossible to visit them all and determine the best. That isn’t going to stop people from trying to point out what they believe is at the top of the pile. Did your favorite spot make the cut?

We, as Americans eat a lot of stupid things. Why? Mostly because they taste good. And because we have no self-control. But here are the dumbest foods we choose to stick in our piehole.

I’m off of the FourSquare bandwagon, but the invention of the Social Cooler might bring me back. The cooler, created by iStrategyLabs, is hacked to open when you check in on the location-based social network. Drinking beer just got even easier.

I’m off of the FourSquare bandwagon, but the invention of the Social Cooler might bring me back. The cooler, created by iStrategyLabs, is hacked to open when you check in on the location-based social network. Drinking beer just got even easier.

If this seems unnecessary, it is. Now don’t get on your high “Colin hates technology” horse again, because that was BS the first time some of you claimed it. Just because this cooler is unnecessary doesn’t mean it’s pointless. This is modern technological innovation at its finest.

We think these kinds of hacks – what we call Social Machines – are the most interesting application of all the disciplines here at iStrategyLabs. We take strategy + creative + technology + experience and BAM! = you get an incredible way to engage people.

Social media isn’t going anywhere, so the people who can find ways to integrate it into everyday life beyond letting people where you are or what you’re eating are going to be the ones pushing the envelope for the next decade. Kudos to Zachary Saale for this clever invention. If beer coolers aren’t your thing, he also has an awesome dog (Twitter stalking FTW!).

While most burger joints are creating new wraps, salads, and chicken tenders, Carl’s Jr is focusing on the dessert menu. They are currently testing an ice cream sandwich that looks just like a burger.

I love ice cream sandwiches, but this may be going a too far. They say your mouth tastes what your eyes see (no they don’t), and I don’t want to take a huge bite thinking it’s going to be a hot chunk of beef only to end up with burning teeth. If I wanted brain freeze I’d just go to 7-11 and get their new Fanta Mango Slurpee. Then again, I am a sucker for things that look like burgers. Speaking of which, I never did get that crazy Micronesian candy burger I ordered.

They are testing these in Orange County, so if that’s where you are give it a shot. I’d love to hear how it is.

It seems like almost everything has a festival of sorts attached to it: movies, dance, music, wine, sports, mullets, but these are the most outlandish festivals in the world.

Contrary to popular belief, Tracy McGrady still plays in the NBA. Unfortunately, his $162,480,486 in career earnings doesn’t seem to be enough because he’s now selling beer for Chinese brewery Yingbo Xuejin.

McGrady came off the bench in 52 games this year and even managed to score 25 points in the Rockets’ six playoff games, but apparently he still can’t flatfoot jump and touch the rim. With the 23 surgeries he’s had though, that shouldn’t really be a surprise. I’m glad he’s looking to move into the acting arena though because I can only handle so many Blake Griffin commercials.

Men are supposed to be rugged, muscled, bearded, penis-wielding, nomadic, woodsmen sorts who pillage, plunder, ravage, unearth and dominate, but certainly don’t ever, ever cry.

Men are supposed to be rugged, muscled, bearded, penis-wielding, nomadic, woodsmen sorts who pillage, plunder, ravage, unearth and dominate, but certainly don’t ever, ever cry. But today, men fill many roles and are much more in tune with their non-manly sides, limited as those times may be. Here are seven times it’s perfectly okay for a guy to let loose his emotions like a blubbering three year-old.

7 When Good Food is Lost Forever

It was a warm day in April of 2002. I had just picked up a delicious twelve-inch submarine sandwich; lightly toasted bread, crispy shredded lettuce, slices of sweet tomato, a liberal shmear of mayonnaise and a juicy chicken breast, lovingly grilled, then cut into strips and arranged on top of melted provolone cheese. I was ravenous and this would be my ticket to satiation salvation. But upon getting out of my friend’s truck, I tripped ever so slightly on a small crack in the driveway and watched in horror as six out of the twelve inches of my sandwich slid out of the wax paper in slow motion and splattered, open-faced on the gravel below. I was so angry, I almost burst into tears and if a profound sandwich-based loss like that ever happened again, I would weep openly and freely.

6 Upon Beholding a Beautiful, Natural Vista

Sometimes nature catches us by surprise. Whether it’s an incredible sunset, a mountain vista or a Venezuelan nude beach, it’s okay to shed a tear at the beauty of Mother Earth.

5 When a Child is Born of His Loins

Having children seems like it could be a poop and scream-filled nightmare that will last the rest of your life, but choosing to have them could also easily be the most important and best decision of your life. It’s okay to cry, just do your wife a favor and wait until after she’s done giving birth.

4 BBQ…Just BBQ

Smoked meats, salty-peppery dry rubs, sweet slatherings of sauce, rivulets of juicy flavor explosions…BBQ is like a Southern picnic on steroids and as such, the incredible aromas and visions of unbridled meat heaven can easily move a man to tears.

My brother Josh once bit into a pulled pork sandwich that was voted one of the best in the country and got misty-eyed because it was indeed, just that delicious. His salty tears were probably the only thing in the world that could improve the taste of the sandwich, because they speak of a man’s love for the wonderful tradition that is American BBQ.

3 When He’s Done Paying His Debts

Whether it’s a mortgage, school loans or alimony, unloading the massive burden of debt will bookend a financially grueling chapter of your life. Now you can spend your money on important things like drugs, hookers and online gambling.

2 When an Important Sports Icon, Political Figure or Cultural Icon Passes Away

Sometimes, we form bonds with people we’ve never met before and never will. I won’t lie, when Chris Farley passed in ‘98, it was probably the saddest celebrity death I’ve ever dealt with. For many men, the death of Reagan in ‘04, Carlin in ‘08 or Princess Di in ‘97 (Okay fine, that’s more of a female-related source of sadness) brought a tear to their eye. And that’s okay.

1 ‘Lord Of The Rings’

…or any other sweeping epic, really. You can’t fight them waterworks when it comes to the all-consuming combination of inspiring visuals, orchestral scores and a classic good vs. evil battle for all of humanity. You just can’t.
