Snake Bite Beer Opener Review
February 22, 2015
Recently we took a look at Snake Bite, a simple tool that actually does it’s job really well. Oh and it’s 100% made in the USA… so it’s got that going for it… which is nice.
What is Snake Bite? Well it is a uniquely handcrafted forked church key & bottle opener that should last you lifetime. Does this belong at your next tailgate? In a word: Yes!
So… Why Vent A Can?
From SnakeBiteCo.com:
Aside from opening bottles, we also introduced two fangs that allow you to vent your canned beer. Why vent a can? Basic physics: If just the main can opening is utilized, the pouring has to stop so that air can enter the can and re-establish equilibrium. This is what causes the “glug-glug-glug” sound when pouring something from a can if it isn’t vented. If you have venting, then air is let in which constantly keeps equilibrium in letting the liquid out smoothly. This is especially important when pouring a canned craft beer into a glass. It’s worth mentioning that every canned beer has different levels of carbonation and due to that, pour results will vary. Venting also eliminates a significant amount of air you ingest while drinking straight from a can. This greatly improves drinkability, comfort, and overall experience.
Don’t believe it? Check out the Pour Test below.
