Sometimes, the simplest things in life are the best. This is especially true when it comes to wine that’s better chilled. Wine chillers are expensive and require time to get your vino to drinkable temps. [...]

Some of the best products in existence came about totally accidentally. One day you're going about your business making potato fries when a customer bitches about them being too thick. You decide to show them [...]

It's an unfortunate fact of life that time keeps moving forward and you're going to get older. Sucks. Still, we say embrace it and man up. You'll reach a point where funneling a beer and ripping shots isn't [...]

Usually opening a bottle of wine or a cold beer is a mundane action, something that happens as you make small talk with your companion or amongst your pals. But with the Handlebar--a bottle opener [...]

There are dozens of clever solutions to opening a bottle of beer when you have no bottle opener: the edge of a table, a lighter, and if you're desperate, your teeth.  But opening a bottle [...]
