BEER #2 Newcastle with the 6-pack box

A friend of mine challenged me that I couldn't open a beer with "just anything."  Hell, I am always up for the challenge.  So here goes.

Today I attempt to open a Newcastle with the cardboard 6-pack box...I know what you're saying, why the hell would you open a perfectly wonderful beer with a piece of cardboard?  Well, why the hell not.


So, first you need to build up a strong enough edge on the cardboard to withstand the leverage you are going to force on the box.  Fold the top down several times like below.





Crease the edges and smash them down tight!  Then, lovingly slide the sharpest edge under the cap, make sure your other hand is tight around the neck of the beer and provides a good, flat leverage surface.



Then with a crisp motion, crank that cardboard up in SHARP motion.  The top will fly off!



Enjoy the Newcastle because it is one of the greatest brown ales out there.  

CHEERS.
