This well-crafted gadget mimics beer openers of the Industrial Age, smoothly and swiftly popping open a beer without making any dents or bending the cap. The Eagle Cap-Off is a one-handed device that adds a sense of class and originality to the beer-drinking experience.
Inspired by the growing popularity of home bars and consumers' increasing love of craft beers, these vintage beer openers are ideal for any beer connoisseur or party host. They are also great for cap collectors as the mechanical arms use strategically placed pressure to leave the cap intact.
American made, the gadget acts as its very own conversation starter, with its long and interesting history inspiring its modern manufacturers -- Mike Grace and Matt McGarrity -- it will also spark the interest of any party guest.
