The Beer Hammer would make a hilarious Christmas gift for the man who loves Thor has much as he loves his beer. Although it isn't inspired by the mythical weapon, it is a hefty bottle opener that will bring the God of Thunder to mind every time it is used. The Beer Hammer comes down with power and panache to open bottles. All a person would need to make the experience even better is their own theme song.
Designed by Luke Brown, a product designer based in Faith, South Dakota, The Beer Hammer is already close to reaching its initial goal of $10,000 on Kickstarter. As is written on the website, "Craftsmanship & design meet to bring you a quality bottle opener that is both personal and unique."
