Tiger throws a gig

And it was a good one. More like a festival than anything else. Began real early too, kicking off at 5pm, and going on till about 1am.

I liked the spot – APW in Bangsar, which i’ve visited for cocktails at the pop-up bar 44, as well as for a few Chivas events. Translate however took the entire area – a coupla warehouses included.

Translate happens around the world, and  features creativity in the field of music and art. So there was a good mix of artistry, by Malaysians and foreigners.

The images can tell the story.

The huggaz-Tiger Beer collaboration koozies were limited editions, and guests could get them by registering. However, you can get your own huggaz koozies here.

The event had a great atmosphere, and everybody looked content and happy. Lotsa beer went down over the evening dats for sure!

Tiger Translate looks set to be an annual gig. It’s definitely bold and something different from the mainstream; lookin forward for Tiger to unleash the next episode.

huggaz beer coolers and wine carriers

A new accessory for drinkers has hit our shores, and about time too. The brand is huggaz, and it’s about insulation products.

Tropical heat + insulation = good idea.

When it comes to beers, especially in tropical / summer weather, keeping ’em nice n cold is tough. With huggaz, that’s no issue anymore.

The coolers (also known as koozies/sleeves/condoms/sarongs) are made of 3.5mm neoprene, which is scuba-suit material. It’s durable, efficient and long-lasting. Neoprene does a better job than foam koozies, which are more common, but less effective.

After using them a few times, i wonder how i ever went without these babies. Beers stay cold all the way to the end! Nutin worse than warm beers, especially after the half-can stage.

Used ’em at Urbanscapes 2013 all day.

There’s always a couple handy in my car now. The can coolers from the Road Series are foldable – useful for travelling and events.

There’re koozies for beer cans and beer bottles, and there’re decorative wine carriers.

Essential for BBQs, music festivals, picnics, beach holidays, road trips, and more.

The beer bottle koozies (Bomb Series) comes with a zipper for a snug fit.

The wine tote bags (Wino Series) make good carriers, insulators, as well as gifts. You could give somebody a bottle of wine together with the huggaz bag as a gift package. All products are machine-washable and should last a long time. The print quality is great.

These keep wine chilled for about an hour. Also prevents breakages in transit.
