Isn’t it a hassle to go to parties where they expect you to pay an outrageous amount of money just to get your drink on? I mean, what do they think you are, a filthy rich mad scientist? Sure, you can just bring your own, but then you have to worry about how you’re going to stuff those brewskis in your bag without them toppling over, leading to a fizzy explosion of disgruntled hops upon opening. And just how are you supposed to keep your drinks cold in said bag? Yeah, you could hope that your party destination is handing out chilled beer steins, but I bet you’re gonna be pretty disappointed when you end up having to drink your tepid adult beverages. So just how are you going to enjoy yourself at such a shindig without having to worry about the status of your liquid courage?

Well if you were rocking the Burton Liquid Lounger (Urban Outfitters, $168.00), then you could rest easy because you’d essentially be the party. It looks like an ordinary backpack, right? Ok, so it’s a bit larger than the usual Friday night accessory, but that’s because it’s got everything you need to sustain a successful evening out. Let’s start with the most obvious space inhabitant, which is the beer. You can fit a 36-pack of your favorite bev in the insulated cooler section, which is more than enough drinks for you and a few friends to enjoy throughout the evening via the easy access top opening. Now let’s talk trimmings, those little extras that are really gonna make your night no-hassle. Need a bottle opener? No prob, there’s one attached to the zipper. Hey, maybe the place you’re at is getting a bit lame and you want to liven it up a bit with some games. Ok, so you’ve got a set of dice and a flask as well as ping pong balls, and even a golf towel to mop up spills that may occur due to game antics. There’s a self-draining ice storage compartment to keep those brews cold while they’re chilling (pun intended) in your backpack. Beer cozies are also included to ease the transition from pack to palm. So that just about covers it, right? Nope, there’s still more. I said you’d be the party, and I meant it. So what does that mean? Music, of course. This pack has integrated stereo speakers and an amp with auxiliary input, along with a padded laptop pocket.

That’s right, with this backpack you are a one man party machine. You could probably even start charging for your entertainment services. And I mean that in a strictly non-stripper sense. Or maybe you want to go that route. Whatev. I’m not here to judge.

4 out of 5 stars.
