The Tactical Bottle Opener: Spyderco ClipiTool Standard

[Mad Mac]

As soon as I saw this six pack, I had to buy it,
an homage to the movie, A Christmas Story.


Spyderco ClipiTool Standard and Karbach Brewing Co. Yule Shoot Your Eye Out

Of course you do not need a bottle opener for cans, but you can use the big 3-inch blade
to slit the carton open like a man.

[Mad Mac]

Last summer, I tried a Karbach Love Street and was not impressed.
This malty liquid did not raise my opinion.
But the cans are good to shoot with a BB gun.

One of the more unusual Shiner beers. It's sort of a... grassy flavor.

By the way, I have revised my oeuvre ( a fancy French word meaning body of work ) so that all of the pictures on this thread should now be visible to everyone.

This Shiner seasonal is a very tasty brew that sells out quickly.
"Happy Christmas to all and to all a good night."


Spyderco ClipiTool Standard and Shiner Holiday Cheer

For Christmas, I received another Beer of the Month care package.
The 3-inch blade came in handy for slitting open the box.

Some micro-breweries have begun canning their craft beer.
It seems like a sacrilege, but it does allow them to expand production.

With a 6.2% alcohol content, it's all downhill.

Doesn't this just make you feel all tingly?

Here's hoping that tonight you are the designated drinker.

Spyderco ClipiTool Standard and Redd's Apple Ale

Years ago, I gave up on the customary New Year's resolutions: exercise more, eat and drink less.
My annual resolution is: Have no guilt. So far, I've been able to keep it.

That's going to be hard to top.

Shiner has changed the line-up on the brewery tour. Homespun Cream Ale has been replaced with a highly sessionable ale that could become my new EDB, but I can't find it in six or 12 packs.

Golden Ale was replaced with Ruby Redbird previously featured
and Wicked Ram has lost its slot in the Brewery Tour to tasty Wicked Juicy IPA.

[Cans have come a long way](https://thetakeout.com/does-beer-taste- ... 1824294844) over the past few decades. Most craft beers are offered in cans these days.

Haven't scrolled through the entire thread yet, but are there any in hand photos with the blade open?

While I'm patiently waiting for a ClipiTool with an M390 or S90V blade, I'll use this:



Cheers,

Very clever bit of kit, Roland. Where would a person find one?

This is RGT's "Brewhawk", MM. https://rippsgaragetech.com/collections ... s/brewhawk. I like backspacers and I like beer :)

[Mad Mac]

This must be it. https://rippsgaragetech.com/products/brewhawk

Ah. Beat me by two minutes. Thanks for the tip.

Argh! A good excuse to buy a Paramilitary 2.

BTW, MM, I like your bike stories .... if you ever come on a week-end into my neck of the woods again (Bay Area), let's go on a ride ! Just bring your helmet ...
