Every now and again RealManTravels.com pauses to bring you the latest from the world of beer. For beer is not boring, nor idle; indeed, beer is dynamic, ever-changing, free (in a non-monetary, hippy kinda-way!

Beer Pong Meets Tech

A Bottle Opener, in Your Mouth
In a hilarious campaign from Argentinian beer brand Salta, rugby players who lost teeth on the field were offered implanted beer openers to replaced their cast away cuspids. Check out the video:
And finally, check out these guys playing Johnny Cash's greatest hits on beer bottles!
