The Tales of Colt 45

Live the 40oz Lifestyle at TheTalesOfColt45.com

Art doesn't have to be about blurry water lilies or chipped pieces of antiquity. It can reflect the stuff you actually appreciate, like friends, and smooth, tasty beer. Here to curate a visual journey for your casual, lo-fi sensibilities: Colt 45.

Teaming with graphic novelist Jim Mahfood, Colt 45's assembled a world of street art celebrating convivial pre-partying, over convivial post-partying, and intimate encounters unlikely to end in marriage -- all key elements of your 40oz Lifestyle. Visit their site, and you'll find things like an incredible paper bag/koozie combo, insouciantly mustachioed buddy icons, and graphic novel Tales -- like that of the nefarious Carl, who woos another man's woman with his 16oz cans. You'll also have an opportunity to tell stories of your own legendary nights, which're hopefully filled with friends, delicious beverages, and one deliciously beverage-soaked mustache.

So go ahead: pull out that Colt 45 you've been stashing in your office fridge's crisper, and settle in for a look at TheTalesOfColt45.com. Hopefully, the artful Tales'll inspire you to call up your friends, drink a few beers, and hunt down that son of a bitch Carl.
