Dogfish Head Beer Soap

Wednesday, May 26th, 2010

Who doesn’t want to smell like beer all day?  Dogfish Head understands this and they’ve come to the rescue with handmade and cut Dogfish Head Beer Soap ($5).  It’s made with their 90 Minute IPA (one of my favorite beers), ground hops and barley.  This soap also contains oils of palm, coconut, rice bran and olive, and essential oils of lavender, rosemary, and fir.  So don’t worry, you won’t smell like you’ve been drinking, unless of course you’ve been drinking.

Now it’s no secret that the Freakn’ Sweet and Beer:30 crew is full of craft beer fans so we find this pretty awesome.  Beats the hell out of  Guinness Soap in my book .

Vintage Straight Razors: Old But Awesome

Tuesday, January 26th, 2010

If you’ve never had a straight razor shave its definitely worth the experience.  I don’t know if I would trust myself with one of these but if you do, you can get an extremely close shave with one of these Vintage Straight Razors ($160-$170). With heritages dating back to the 1920s and ’30s, these immaculate blades are in like new or better condition, with authentic vintage designs as well as original scales, pins, and super-sharp blades that will remind you why you ditched your electric razor in the first place.

Guinness Soap = Awesome!

Guinness Soap = Awesome!

The ancient Egyptians knew that beer, in addition to making parties more fun and allowing white guys to dance, had incredible cleansing powers.  Actually, thats not true. Even with beer we white guys can’t dance. But apparently beer does have the power to clean.

Discovered by our obsessively hygienic friends over at Asylum, The Beer Soap Company has been mixing beer with unrefined shea butter and olive, palm kernel, sunflower, and castor oils, to create a handmade, spuds-and-suds-laden soap that works for showering, shampooing or shaving.  And if you think washing up with brew will leave you smelling like you spent a long day working the line at Schlitz, their Guinness Extra Stout is described as “very heady with a chocolate aroma and flavor, along with coffee.”

They’ve mixed up over a dozen varieties, featuring everything from Newcastle Brown Ale to Tsingtao and even Hornsby’s Hard Apple Cider. 

Keep a couple of the big 4.5 oz bars on hand, so when your girl asks if you’ve been out drinking with your boys, tell her, “Nope, I just got out of the shower.”

$5. Any 5 for $20
