Das Boot

E-mail Print PDF

American Oktoberfests continue into the early October weeks and you may find at these festivals or local German bars and restaurants a beer glass that looks oddly like a boot. Or you may already be familiar with this from seeing Broken Lizard’s 2006 film, Beerfest where “Das Boot” was a humorous plot point.

The Hash Back

E-mail Print PDF

Here’s a little bit of fun for you home brewers out there? The Hash Back.

Much like Dogfish Head’s Randall Filter, our friends Kent Fletcher and Drew Beechum from the Maltose Falcons Home Brew Club (www.maltosefalcons.com) sat down and built their own Randall Filter, without ever seeing Dogfish Head’s model. What they ended up with is a great little device to dry hop some beer. Hell, you can put whatever you want in this filter. A little Bacon Stout? Go for it. A Mojito Wheat Beer? Stuff it with fruit and some fresh mint leaves. Your Hash Back and keg are your canvas.

Beer Bottle Lawn Darts

E-mail Print PDF

We all know that traditional lawn darts are now illegal. Backyard BBQ + Beer + Large, Pointy, Flying Darts = Someone Losing an Eye.

So instead of the bloody mess, they now sell heavy, weighted lawn darts. This is a much better idea. Rather than someone losing an eye, their skull gets crushed instead. We will teach you how to make your own set of weighted lawn darts using aluminum beer bottles. It adds a unique twist to the game since they are an awkward shape. It’s pretty tough to master the way they roll and bounce, making this quite a challenging and fun backyard game. Follow these instructions to make your own set, and get creative. Being the diehard Phillies fans that we are, we chose to paint ours in an old school Phillies motif. If you are a Mets fan, I suggest you paint yours a lovely shade of go-fuck-yourself.
