A beer designed specifically for shower use aims to keep its cool in hot conditions by downsizing the bottle.
It never occurred to me to drink beer in the shower until the moment I heard about Shower Beer, a brew designed to keep you company while you wash your hair and shave your armpits. Apparently, I've been missing out.
Shower Beer from PangPang Brewery in Sweden is a strong pale ale bottled in a dainty 6-ounce (177-milliliter) bottle. It comes in a several-sips serving size so it has a better chance of staying chilled through the quaffing process, even if you're taking a steamy shower. That allows it be down the hatch before it gets hot and gross.
This unusual ale concept comes out of a collaboration between the brewery and Swedish creative agency Snask. In a slightly disturbing twist, Snask shows off the product in a series of photos that includes an image of a shattered glass bottle, which is the last thing you would want to see while you're standing naked and vulnerable in the shower. So...don't drop your Shower Beer.
Snask describes the brew as "sweet but strong" and notes that it's intended to be upended in just three sips. The first batch sold out immediately at a release party. A second batch is now in the works. If you can't get your hands on an actual Shower Beer, you may need to substitute a local microbrew with a koozie to keep it cool.
This is satire, right?
Reminds me of the ‘potty putter’
” a brew designed to keep you company while you wash your hair and shave your armpits.”
What’s so special about this? I used to booze up in college when I showered. Time is money.
I thought this was another trump golden showers story ...lol
Two words: Miller Pony.
Great for Bloody Beer.
You showered?
Shower beer is deadly serious, friend.
I was indoctrinated when my dad would take me backpacking as a teen. After several days of being hot and filthy, getting a shower at the end was cathartic and awesome, and a beer while showering was part of the reward.
Later as a mountain biker I’d return home scraped and coated in dirt, and by then I had synthesized the act into my overall worldview. It got necessary calories into my system during a pivotal period.
Overall, meta-lesson learned: Decant into plastic. Glass in shower ends in tears.
Never had a problem with a beer while in the shower. 6 ounces ....That would be a problem. Thats more of a shot than a beer
Maybe I'm missing something here, but I don't see the need for a beer specifically designed for drinking while taking a shower. Your typical shower takes what, 10 Minutes? If you can't go ten minutes without a beer, you're probably not showering much anyway.
Now if I could only keep my cigar lit.
DANG!
If you have to ask....
“Your typical shower takes what, 10 Minutes?”
Depends a lot on who you’re with.
(Remembers clearing drain of long strawberry blond hair and thinking what a small price it was to pay)
“Honest, Doc, I was taking a shower with that there beer and I slipped. One in a million, Doc.”
“Now if I could only keep my cigar lit”
