Beer Bottle Openers

Unless you want to go back to the days of the pirates and hack the top off your bottle of beer with a sword, you're going to need a bottle opener. While the whole hack and slash route may be interesting, and even impress the girls, the idea of chugging down shards of glass with your ale is not very appetizing.

There are a few different styles of bottle openers you can use to do this job.

If you are at home, there is plenty of variety to have in your bottle opener. You can have a simple cheap one that gets the job done, decorative ones that look like anything from a motorcycle to a dog's mouth where the bottle top pops off. If you open a lot of bottles, you may even want to consider installing one on a wall or the side of your bar where people can walk by, pop the bottle open and the lid will fall into a receptacle underneath.

On the run? There are a lot of bottle openers that are small enough to fit in your back pocket so you always have one nearby. Some of these even fold up into themselves, which keeps any edges from cutting your clothing or just being uncomfortable.

Always at hand is the keychain bottle opener. Wherever your keys are, there too is the keychain bottle opener. It gives you double the reason to remember where you put your keys down. These are usually rather compact bottle openers, but they do the job and allow you to enjoy that next drink.
