If their beer is more 'sexy', then maybe The Drink Toque should get their yarn from Saskatchewan?

They're not saying, they're just saying ...

Saskatchewan, Canada is known for its' Potash reserves, aka Potassium.

"Scientists confirm that Saskatchewan malting barley is relatively high in potassium. Bryan Harvey, professor emeritus and barley specialist at University of Saskatchewan, estimates that potassium levels in local barley would reach about 300 parts a million, more than twice the level in, say, European barley ... That extra content would certainly be reflected in the beer’s potassium levels".

And, Potassium has kind of been linked to sexual hormone production. The "chatter in bars, and among health writers, that potassium helps stimulate the production of sex hormones".

In turn, the CEO of Great Western Brewing says, “We have maybe the world’s sexiest beer!”, as the "malting barley used to make Great Western’s beers grows atop of the world’s largest potassium deposit".

It must be fun to have this level of free brand imagery. "“Saskatchewan barley is sexy,” he says, and, therefore, so is his beer. Yet he worries this knowledge could trigger insatiable demand. “Imagine how the world would be if everyone knew about it.”"

Hi there, can I buy you a potato?

This is fun.

Do you drink Great Western Beer and can you confirm this? Is this credible bar-talk or free brand imagery? Wouldn't this count for all the wheat and stuff out that way? And, if potassium is the key, then monkeys know best, as bananas have more potassium than anything, or was it potatoes?

Anyways, you get the picture, I keep imagining people approaching others in a bar with the line, 'Hi there, can I buy you a potato?'. (Hmmm, DrinkToques for potatoes!!!)

But, don't get me wrong, this all sounds like fun nonetheless! Saskatoon here I come!

Hey, look over there, the custom @CampingBlogger design is up on their website!

Check out the new custom Camping Blogger designs!

CampingBlogger.net had this to say about their newest product:

"We all know one of the best insulators around is a knit cap, so why not a knit cap for your favorite beverage? These drink coozies are super durable and do a great job of keeping your cold drinks cold and keeping your hot drinks from burning your hands.

I actually started using these in the spring of 2009 and I loved them so much I had the manufacturer, The Drink Toque, produce a CampingBlogger version for me. They not only do a great job of insulating your beverage of choice, but when they get dirty you just throw them in the wash with the rest of your camping gear and they look brand new!"

Thanks Camping Blogger!

We love how these designs turned out. Great looking logo. Nice classic, camping sign brown base colour. White knit stripes. A great product.

Get yours today at Camping Blogger's shop, and then go camping!

Here's how it works:

Step 1 : Add your favourite styles to your Cart via the Catalogue

Go to drinktoque.com's Catalogue, and choose your favourite Drink Toques. After you choose 'Add to Cart' for one, it will take you to the Cart. But, you want more than one style, so click on 'Return to Shop', and navigate back to the Catalogue to choose your next Drink Toque style.

Step 2 : Finding and Copying the necessary Discount Code

a) Once you have chosen 4 units or more, you will notice that a specific Discount Code has appeared on your Cart Page (if you are not on the Cart Page yet, but have finished shopping, click on the 'Cart' on the top right if the page). You will see something like this on your Cart page:



b) in this example case, the Discount Code is a fictitious 'Double-Trouble'. If you are finished shopping, you need to highlight the discount code (ex.'Double-Trouble') and copy it using your mouse or keyboard. Keep it copied, as this Discount will be used in the second, and final, screen of Checkout process.

Step 3 : Checkout process and Applying your Discount Code

a) Once you are finished shopping, click on the 'Checkout Now' (below and slightly to the right of the Discount Code). You will be taken to the first of two screens in the Checkout process, where you will fill in your name, and necessary contact information. Once you finished with the first screen, click on 'Continue to next step' at the bottom of the page.

b) IMPORTANT : Near the top of the second screen in the Checkout process is the 'Discounts' section, followed

by 'Have a discount code? Enter it here:', below which you will paste in the Discount Code you copied earlier. After pasting in the Discount Code, hit the 'Apply' button on the right. After doing so, you will notice the price in the top right corner reduces significantly.



Step 4 : Complete the Purchase

a) choose your preferred Shipping Method (Please note : Lettermail has worked quite efficiently for us. But, if you require your purchase quicker, please select Xpresspost.)

b) in the 'Complete my purchase' section, fill in your credit card information, and click on the 'Complete my purchase' button below.

You're done! Your Drink Toques are on their way! Cheers.
