A Speaker You’ll Want to Touch

stein_speaker_layout

If you’ve ever been to the beach or spent any time on the shore, you’re familiar with our innate human desire to pick up and feel smooth sea stones. It’s a simple yet unique tactile experience that, for whatever reason, is really hard to pass up! Inspired by this notion, the Stein speaker is modeled after the same sea stones and adopts its shape and feel. Its organic shape is designed to gently rest in the user’s palm and to disperse audio in an enveloping arc.

Not only easy on the eyes, it’s also designed to become a part of the user’s everyday life. It features Bluetooth capability, a built-in microphone for calls, easy touch buttons and a minimalistic smart-display. Packed with the sound power of the Bowers & Wil-kins brand, it delivers crisp audio from a singular compact unit that you can easily throw in any bag or backpack.

A Bottle Breakthrough

stein_02

The Healthy Human Stein water bottle is the perfect go-anywhere companion no matter what you’re doing. In a variety of sizes, there’s always a perfect fit for the car cupholder, backpack side pocket, gym bag and more. Interchangeable sports nozzles or wide-mouth caps suit a myriad of adventures and activities. Each holds enough H20 or other beverages to keep you fueled throughout your activity.

Better yet, these bottles boast Temp MaxTM insulation tech – an innovative design using a double-wall interior with all air suctioned out in between the walls of the product, preventing any air particles from transferring heat or cold to the outside wall. Aside from being completely sweat-free, this means your beverage will stay icy cold for up to 12 hours or hot for up to 6 hours! The only thing you need to worry about is what cool color to get!

Star Wars Steins Hold Beer and Awesome

If you are the monster that Budweiser created (Drinkenstein) you need a stein to hold your drink. A plain stein won’t do it for geeky beer lovers, what you need is one of these awesome ceramic Star Wars steins.

My boy Boba Fett gets some love in this collection with the coolest bounty hunter in the galaxy well represented. If Fett isn’t your favorite, you could go with Darth Vader or R2-D2. Each of the steins has a lid that opens so you can get to your beer or whatever else you might put inside.

These aren’t exactly cheap at $49.99(USD) each, but it’s Boba Fett and it holds beer. Just buy one already at ThinkGeek. Spilled beer warning: they are top heavy with the lid open.

Los Angeles Clippers Held DeAndre Jordan Hostage In His Own House


The Los Angeles Clippers held DeAndre Jordan hostage right in his own home. According to a July 8 update from ESPN's Marc Stein and Ramona Shelburne, Jordan is on the verge of taking back his...

Attack on Titan Stein Breaches Wall Maria, Won’t Spill your Beer

Fans of Attack on Titan can appreciate this big ceramic beer stein. It shows the moment when the Colossal Titan breaks through Wall Maria and changes history. The titan has his gross, muscular body on the front of your stein as you drink your beer.

I think this is the perfect way to subtly hint you will go Colossal Titan on anyone who spills your beer. The ceramic stein is 4.25-inches in diameter and 8-inches tall and holds about 28 ounces of beer or other drink. The only downside to this thing is that you have to hand wash it.

In my house, hand wash means you swish some water in it after you are done and figure it’s good to go back in the cabinet. If you’re good with that, you can pick one up at ThinkGeek for $24.99(USD).

Game of Thrones Map Beer Steins Beg for a Drinking Game

Game of Thrones fans who want to partake in an adult beverage (I suggest mead) during their favorite show need to get their hands on these. Each stein is a large 20oz. drinking mug with an embossed map of Westeros on its surface.

gotsteinmagnify

I think to get the full effect you need to have a big bushy beard and make sure to tip the cup enough that beer pours out the sides of the cup and ends up in your beard.

The stein measures 4.25″ in diameter and is 6.75″ tall and made from ceramic. Sadly, it’s not dishwasher or microwave safe, but it’s not like they have either of those in Westeros. You can get your stein for $19.99(USD) right now over at ThinkGeek.

Chainmail Beer Stein: Pour Me a Flagon of Mead!

If you are looking for a new mug or stein to drink beer from while you watch Game of Thrones, here it is. This is a stein that Eddard Stark or Jamie Lannister would be proud to gulp their mead from. It is made entirely from chainmail.

You have to be a big tough guy to drink from this since it weighs about 5lbs. and stands 7.5 inches-tall. Every drinking session will be like a workout with this thing. And yes, since it is made of chainmail, your beverage is just going to leak as fast as you pour it in. Though you could just put a pint glass inside of it to solve that minor design flaw.

Besides, it looks great just as a decoration.

The Ultimate Medieval Beer Helmet Holds Two Flagons of Mead

There’s nothing more obnoxious than one of those guys with a pair of camouflage party pants and a hat that you can sip beer out of. But leave it to the geeks of the world to make drinking beer from a helmet just a little cooler.

Instructables contributor DucttapeNinja decided that the tacky sportsfan beer helmet needed a proper LARP-ing, and created this beer-sipping helmet thats’ based on Gimli’s helmet from the Lord of the Rings movies.

medieval beer helmet 2

I can honestly say this is the first time I’ve seen armor that provides both head protection and ready access to alcohol – which is always a good thing to have around should you find yourself on the losing end of an axe fight.

DucttapeNinja thinks his helmet design could easily be applied to any helmet you’d like, so you could go for anything from a Beerba Fett, to a Sh*tfaced Spartan to a Daft Drunk with the proper helmet, and DtN’s Instructables beer helmet tutorial in hand.

R2-D2 Popcorn Bucket and Mug

r2d2 popcorn and mug 650x352 R2 D2 Popcorn Bucket and Mug
Created especially for the re-opening of the Disney Star Wars exhibit in June of 2011 and in limited editions is the Disney Star Wars R2-D2 Plastic Popcorn Bucket & Drink Stein Set R2 D2 Popcorn Bucket and Mug. Of all the indignities Artoo has suffered, being made into a popcorn bucket has to be among the most humiliating. And also pretty freakin’ cool, I’d love to sit on the couch and eat popcorn out of R2′s body while watching Empire or Jedi. Not as cool as being able to drink a beer out of R2D2 with the R2 mug on the left, but cool enough. R2 beers, the Force is strong with that one, amirite?
