The perfect tool does exist.

Has anyone tried out this nip and sip tool from loon?

Loon Outdoors Nip N Sip Clipper XL

Loon Outdoors Nip N Sip Clipper XL Extra-large and comfy-gripped, the newest version of the Nip & Sip is a significant step up. The new design is comfortable in hand (especially for anglers with larger hands), allows for consistent blade alignment, and, of course, includes a bottle-opener.

First fact...I like a wide range of beer from
PBR TallBoys to Troegenator Double Bock.

For me, when I want to treat myself,
frequently on a FF road trip, I buy my beer in bottles and keep in fridge to enjoy when I return to my AIRBNB.

Any angler, worth their salt, knows the importance of have backup tools for priority tasks....

Seems to b a good application here.🍻🍻

Yow!! TDB ^ is my favorite craft beer choice when I really want to kick back. I will say one and most certainly two of them will make any FFing road trip a real trip.

When fishing, I switched to craft beer in cans eons ago...

As far as bottles go, as a kid I learned how to pop a top using anything so I haven't used an opener in decades.

If I get lazy, there is always a Swiss Army knife close by...

$37???? No thanks. Ill go with a cheap lighter. With a lighter I can open botles, toke, and get rid of tags . You can get 3-10 packs of bic lighters on Amazon for roughly the same price.

Craft beer=add more hops to hide the taste of bad beer.

Most, if not all of which, still tastes like crap!

I prefer my tri-jet.

I prefer my vintage Scripto Vu Lighters or a Zippo Armor although I don't open bottles with them...

If you find a Vu with good seals, fluid will never evaporate.

The most recent beers I had were bottles of Miller, Yuengling and Pilsner Urguell. They were all good. Nothing fancy there.

One beer that is always in my beer/worm fridge is Yuengling Premium...

I've been a fan since the late 1980's when I could buy it in 16oz returnables.

While on a party boat with a case by my side, I used a full one as a priest on a bluefish.

So in the spirit of the title of this thread, I respectfully submit a full 16oz bottle of Yuengling or any other beer as another "perfect tool."

One of the problems I have with craft beer is with many of them, the ABV is approaching wine... That means if I am out, I have be careful what I drink if I'm driving.

It's a good thing I'm a huge fan of Guinness Stout which is only 4.2 ABV.

There are couple in my future this Thanksgiving!

I’m really curious to see the Venn diagram between “nymphing isn’t fly fishing, dries only” and “craft beer sucks, I only drink macros”. Guessing there’s significant overlap 🤣

My grandfather used to go out to his garage, drink Premium returnables, listen to the Philles and swear at the radio. "Oh $h!t, Schmidt!" Getting a B&W 19" TV just made it worse. Being able to see it, just made him madder. The other 21 hours of the day he was funy and told great stories. ⚾🍺

Bourbon Barrel-Aged Triple Nator

This is the big, malty and ageable Triple Nator with a bourbon-barrel twist. Munich malt, chocolate malt and Belgian candy sugar deliver deep toffee and complex malt notes, and months in bourbon barrels add hints of toasted coconut, vanilla and molasses. Put it in a glass or put it in your...

I just had this one. A little steep at 40 bucks for a 4-pack.

We were standing in the parking lot of the hotel after a day of fishing and a gentleman pulled out a couple of bottles without twist off tops. Had to go into the hotel and ask the man at the desk for an opener. Yes….I can see a need for this!
