Outside Stuff: The Official Beer Glove

You'll never drop your beer again!

It’s one thing to manufacture and market a drinking accessory. It’s another thing to have a sense of humor about it. Thankfully, that’s what the people at St. Louis-based Pairs Plus, LLC, have with their Official Beer Glove, an acrylic glove with raised grippers on the palm, which the website says will reduce party fouls by an amazing 79 percent and keep your drinking hand comfortably warm while your beverage stays cold. The Official Beer Glove comes in a variety of colors. There’s a combo for every team allegiance imaginable, or you can request one—even the Miami Dolphins, and their colors are fugly. Gloves can be ordered individually ($7, plus shipping) or in bulk. Again, there’s very little science here, but the concept is genius. Order at officialbeerglove.com.
