We seem to be finding more and more gadgets related to beer and drinking. As drinking is an activity everybody at CG seems to enjoy we thought it was only sensible to have a drinking gadgets section.

October 5th, 2007 by Al in USB Gadgets, Drinking Gadgets

BeWine Connected

So you’ve already got the coolest wine cellar, what you now need is some way to inventorise your ever growing collection (or depleting collection as in my case). So we have Open Cellar, the wine management software on a bottle shaped USB stick.

Software that manages your wine collection perfectly and allows you to access it up even when you aren’t at home !

Open Cellar is so practical it gives you access to all the information with only a few clicks. The interface is pleasant and intuitive, wine forms are detailed and complete, with numerous reports and statistics. The web-based program offers even more features.

You can buy the software and USB wine bottle from BeWine Connected.

The Booze Drip

October 2nd, 2007 by Al in Drinking Gadgets, Wacky Gadgets

Booze Drip

This probably isn’t politically correct but funny none the less, the booze drip.

Everyone knows that laughter is the best medicine, so you need to make sure you get your daily dose of fun. The best way for you to medicate yourself would have to be this Bedside Booze Drip.

Designed around a Hospitals IV drip you can fill the bottle with any drink you want and have it ready and waiting when the pains of your life, wife or strife, get to much. It comes with a stand to hang the bottle from and a long IV tube that can be places in a glass or straight in your mouth for instant relief.

You can buy the booze drip from Drink Stuff for £12.99 (~$25) but please be sensible(ish).

This fridge shares something with me: the love for beer!

September 28th, 2007 by Andi in Drinking Gadgets, Electronic Gadgets, Home Gadgets

HomePub fridge closeup
What you to see here is the Asko HomePub Fridge. The name itself says a lot about it - Home Pub. Easy and suggesting one sweet thing to someone thirsty like me: cold, frothy pints.

I like this fridge. I really like it. I’d go as far as to suggest it as a second fridge in the house, with a better location, i.e. the living room.

Why? Well, look to the left: beer! This is the beer lover’s appliance. Besides an oh-so-precious beer tap, it’s got some interesting drink-storage facilities. Still, there’s some space left for food. It’s just not that much, it’s just good enough for living room snacks.

Want to see it? Click on! You’ll also get the specifications as a bonus.

Anti-stress milk, from Japan of course

September 27th, 2007 by Andi in Medical Gadgets, Drinking Gadgets, Retro Gadgets, Wacky Gadgets, Miscellaneous Gadgets
milk_1.jpg

Yet another strange product from Japan. This time, it’s a natural product. Milk. However, it’s not normal milk.

It’s taken from cows only once a week, at the break of dawn. This way, the milk is about 4 times richer in natural melatonin than usual. Melatonin is considered to be a strong stress reliever.

The fact that the milk is bottled at no more than 6 hours after the milking also helps it to retain natural properties.

What’s truly stunning about this milk however is its price: $43 for a 900-milliliter bottle. Quite ’spensive, isn’t it?

The original press release is right after the break.

Snakes and Ladders Drinking Game

September 24th, 2007 by Al in Drinking Gadgets

Snakes and Ladders

This is one version of “Snakes and Ladders” that isn’t suited for kids, along with dodging snakes and climbing ladders you’ve also got to sup the odd shot along the way. The game includes a few twists on the traditional version:

  • Ladders that allow you to jump forward
  • Snakes that push you back several squares
  • Targets that force you to take a shot (like you need a reason to) or even better a double shot. All shot glasses have to be refilled.
  • Targets that allow you to pick a friend that has to take a shot
  • ‘Truth or dare’ challenges… You can imagine what the combination of drinking, good company and a truth or dare challenge may result to…

You can get drunk playing Snakes and Ladders for £9.95, booze not included :( .

Fancy a Bevy, the Beer Opening iPod Case

September 21st, 2007 by Al in Drinking Gadgets, iPod gadgets

iPod Bevy

I don’t normally see the point of buying a tiny iPod and then sticking it in a massive case, but the bevy is different, not only does it protect your iPod Shuffle it can also open bottles of beer.

Have you got an iPod Shuffle? Do you drink beer? Do you use keys? If the answer is yes to all three, then you need the Bevy. This ingenious sliver of sturdy plastic and bottle top-biting metal functions as an iPod Shuffle case, a bottle opener and a keyring. Talk about multi-tasking!

You can have a Bevy for £9.95 (~$20) from Firebox.

coffee-machine.jpgCoffee lovers, rejoice! There is now a way for you to conjure a cup of hot joe just the way you like it via an Internet connection, courtesy of some caffeine lovers with a penchant for DIY. This unique coffee making machine is powered by the O2M8 WebBrick controller that is used for automation in houses. Guess there is nothing quite like a little bit of imagination to perk you up during those slow Monday afternoons.
