Wondering what to get for the beer lover this Christmas?  Why not get them The Beer Belly!  A camelfront(?) beer dispenser that covertly disguises itself as a beer belly.  Useful for “bar-b-ques with the in-laws, sporting events, parades, political rallies, weddings” and more.  It holds up to two liters of beer, is made of neoprene to keep the beer cold, and costs just $39.99!

I came across this hilarious invention in last week’s CAMRA Vancouver newsletter and kind of want one.  The idea of paying $10 for beer for consumption at a sporting event and getting more than a Dixie cup is compelling.  At the same time, I’m pretty sure my wife would never actually let me use this.  Also, drinking out of a fake gut isn’t exactly how I usually go about enjoying beer.

On second thought, you probably shouldn’t get this for a beer lover, maybe for a frat boy though?  If you do need a gift for that beer lover in the family, I recommend going to a store specializing in beer and asking the resident expert to recommend you something interesting.

Cheers and happy holidays,

Chris
