When PBR by the 24-pack just isn’t enough, the Pabst 99-Pack is here to help. The very large packaging was spotted in Quebec, hence the “99 Cannettes.” Which sounds way too fancy to appear in the States.
No mention if the Pabst 99-packs will make their way south of the border, but for those in Canada, enjoy ‘murica by the can.

Real world problem… you have six beers to open and time is of the essence. SIXOVERONE is the bottle opener that will save you time, by getting six beers open in one fell swoop.
The awesome new tool is designed to grab up to six bottle caps at a time, and will quickly get the party started. Need just two beers opened? The SIXOVERONE could do that too, it’s just not as fun.
The SIXOVERONE is currently funded on indiegogo, so get involved and get your six-packs opened, pronto.
If you’ll be attending the ultimate beer festival, Oktoberfest, then you’ll need the proper footwear. Firstly, the shoes will need to be comfortable. Bonus, if they’re also beer and puke repellent.
Adidas, seeing a need in the market, has created München Oktoberfest, the proper footwear whilst drinking in Bavaria.
Not only do the kicks provide immediate brand recognition, but each pair is made with premium materials and a special DPBR coating (Durable Puke and Beer Repellent). They also include fancy stitching inspired by lederhosen, a pattern on the inside to match traditional Oktoberfest tablecloths, and “Prost,” which you should say before you shove that giant beer into your face. Available here.

BrewDog, apparently not a fan of walls, has planned to build a pub on the US-Mexico border. The Bar on the Edge will not only be on the dividing line between countries, but will be placed half in the U.S.A and half in Mexico.
The concept of the bar is to help celebrate the brewery’s Tex-Mex craft beer event at their DogTap taproom — as well as an effort to expand the brewery’s global reach. So, if you’re in the area, head down for a beer… or a cerveza, depending on where you’re standing.
James Watt, co-founder at BrewDog:
“’The Bar on the Edge’ will be set up in the furthest outskirts of the United States, reflecting our ambition to reach every corner of the country as we begin to brew our beers on US soil. Beer has always been a unifying factor between cultures – and our business was born from collaboration and an inclusive approach – so we thought it would be fun to place the bar a few feet further to actually cross the US-Mexico border too.”
“We will request official permission from the local authorities to put it there and adhere to any red tape stuff, but I guess it would make it more difficult to build a wall if there’s a BrewDog bar in the way. We’re planning on putting the bar there anyway until someone tells us to move it.”
