Summer is coming (apparently). Would there be any interest in NHC custom beer koozies?

Example below is from a designer I know in UK. He did these for his company:



No idea on price yet as Ive to get in touch with a company in the US for the blank koozies but
Id imagine the very most they would be printed is 5.00e each & a good chunk of that would go back to the club.


On tap: Flanders, Gose,
Fermenting: Oatmeal Brown, 200ish Fathoms,
Ageing: bretted 1890 export stout.
To brew:  2015 RIS, Kellerbier, Altbier.

Are they not designed to keep a bottle/can cold rather than warm them?

I would imagine it would work both ways.

They look very thin though.

Its an in joke with ale snobs I think. Yes they're designed to keep your beer cool/stop your hand warming the bottle. You will still have to chill your beer first  :)

That's be handy for meets alright.

The koozies are collapsable so they're flat in your arse pocket with your wallet. Just whip it out when you're having a beer. I have a boston red sox one I use all the time.

I've used these before.
Super job for drinking from the bottle, so grand if  bottle is filled from keg.
