BrewCave Walk-in Cooler & Kegerator: The Beer Lover’s Happy Place

Lambert Varias — Fri, 13 Apr 2012 19:30:04 +0000

The BrewCave is to beer lovers what a walk-in closet is to a fashionista. Or what Disneyland is to a kid. Or what a room filled with the things that you love is to you. It’s the perfect cave for your man cave.

The BrewCave is made of metal-skinned panels with 4″ insulation cores. It can fit up to 30 cases of beer along with 4 kegs of more beer. As you can see it also has a built-in dispenser, so your guests can get a drink without interrupting your alone time with your cache inside. It has a 3/4hp refrigeration system designed to maintain an icy cold temperature of 32°F.

You can order the BrewCave from Kegworks for $6,349 (USD); pay $400 more and you get an insulated steel floor. It will be delivered as individual panels and thus will need to be assembled, so you’d better be sober when it gets to your place.

R2-D2 Can Cooler Keeps Your Drink2-Cool2

Star Wars fans already have some good ways to open bottled beverages, but for those of you who prefer to sip from of cans, I’ve got something for you too. Yep, what you’re looking at here is an R2-D2 can cooler.

Made by Ikon Collectibles, this officially licensed, insulated R2 can cooler is perfect for keeping your soda and beer feeling like it’s still on Hoth, even if you’re stuck in the deserts of Tatooine.

At this point, it looks like the R2-D2 can cooler is selling only in Australia and New Zealand, but you might be able to pick up a wholesale lot from Ikon if you’re into that sort of thing.

R2 arrives June 2012, just in time for those warm Summer days up here in the Northern hemisphere (of course it’s winter in Australia, so go figure.)

Most gamers in the know will tell you that the Nintendo Wii doesn’t really require any supplemental cooling. But this cooling stand not only reduces the temperature of your Wii, it makes it LOOK cooler.

Imported by Hong Kong’s Brando, the Wii Crystal Cooler is a special stand that not only adds a high velocity fan to the underside of your console, it adds extra-bright blue LED illumination around the base of the system, giving it an otherworldly glow.

So even though my Wii has never generated any meaningful heat, I’m mesmerized by the cool blue aura of this thing. For just $19, it might be worth a shot.
