Father’s Day is just around the corner! I have to admit, I think that mothers and fathers should be celebrated many-a-day and not just on a single designated day. That being said, I was just honored for Mother’s Day and I thoroughly enjoyed the love!
Here’s a little history about Father’s Day:
The day came about in 1910 by daughter, Sonora, who thought that father’s should have a day to be honored as well as mothers. Sonora’s father raised six children as a single parent and she wanted to show her appreciation. Thanks to her efforts, we now know the 3rd Sunday in June to be a nationally recognized day to celebrate fathers!
Oowee Products has been working toward giving you more options to honor your husbands, fathers or baby daddies with unique leather koozies! We know he loves craft beer and could dig a cool new koozie that gives him a special shout out! Check out our ready made section to order, or create your own through the custom section!

Oowee Products made it’s way to the Windy City last week. Mixing a little family, craft brewery time, museums tours, and navigating the city, Gabriel had a packed schedule! Lots of craft beer, art and travel.
There are so many great breweries in The Windy City it’s hard to mentioned them all but here are a few that you shouldn’t miss if you are up that way:
Revolution was the 1st brewery on the agenda. Oowee met with Kim, head of merch. She was nice and had never seen anything like our awesome leather koozies before. Oowee really enjoyed Pipeworks, This brewery has a cool website, worth a looksie. After that, Oowee checked out The Beer Temple. Chris, the owner was super nice. Chris is recognized by the Siebel Institute of Technology, America’s oldest brewing school, as a Master of Beer Styles and Evaluation and his knowledge is abundant! We loved Half Acre! They have fantastic graphics on their cans. In April 2010 Half Acre became the first brewer in Chicago to can beer and they went with the classic “tall boy” as their canning preference. They actively collaborate with other s to create tasty craft beers for your drinking pleasure.
Another brewery that we really enjoyed was Argus! Byron, the head brewer was awesome and really enjoyed our leather koozies. Argus Brewery bottles their beers and has growlers available. Oowee Products is working on leather growler holders. The design is coming along and should be housing tasty growlers of craft beverages soon! Prototypes are already in use!
Sonia, head brewer with 5 Rabbit Brewery was super sweet. This brewery has a unique Latin influence. They boast cuisine and craft beer that is rooted in the history of Central and South America.
At Buckle Down Brewing, Oowee met up with owner, Ike, and bartender, KChey. Everyone there made Oowee feel very welcome! They were very receptive to our leather koozies, and the work we do with the Autism Society of North Carolina.
After a week of bouncing to various breweries, Oowee landed at Soldier Field for the American Beer Classic. This was a full day of incredible craft beverages at the famous Soldier Field in Chicago. The day was all about showcasing and sampling some of the finest craft beers in America. Oowee Products had a tent set up with a variety of leather koozies and got to meet a lot of local patrons as well as brewers and brewery owners. Oowee had a great trip to Chicago and is looking forward to going back!
What a fantastic day Saturday was!!! We had a great time at the Super D Race at the Kolo Bike Park! The race was a combo of downhill and cross country with some jumps thrown in. This was part of Southern Super D Series. The next race in the series is Sunday June 15! Check out the web page with the link above if you are interested, USAC racing license is required.

Oowee Products has a busy Spring. May kicks off with the Annual French Broad River Festival! We are super excited about the annual mountain bike race! Oowee will be providing the winners (and biggest loser) with some awesome leather koozies as prizes.
Then, Oowee hits the windy city! We’re not sure if the folks up near Chicago have ever seen our awesome leather koozies. We will be there all next week and get to finish off the week with the American Beer Classic Festival held at Soldier Field. Should be a great time with a lot or yummy craft beers. There are two sessions, 1pm-5pm and 7pm-11pm! Tons of great breweries will be represented there! We made some special leather pint glass koozies for the city! Hope they like ’em!

It’s May 2nd-May 4th, 2014 in beautiful Hot Springs, North Carolina! There’s a mountain bike race and river race and these are friendly to all levels of outdoor enthusiasts.

There’s family activities, arts and crafts, and good tunes so get your tickets and get out to Hot Springs!
The next week is LEAF in Black Mountain, NC. This is May 8th -11th. If you haven’t been to LEAF yet, you gotta check it out! It’s super family friendly and has tons of activities for all ages.

If you can’t make it to LEAF, no worries, there are plenty of other options. On May 10th, The Best Firkin Beer Fest will be going on at Pisgah Brewery in Black Mountain. This festival celebrates artisan, small batch, barrel aged brews from some of the country’s top rated microbreweries. This is a fantastic place to sample some delicious craft beers! Beer enthusiasts welcome. Come and get your drink on next to brewers and other connoisseurs in the fresh open air of the Blue Ridge Mountains in our lovely state of North Carolina.

If your into the Spring flowers, the Biltmore has a “Biltmore Blooms” festival that happens May 20th-23rd. After you check out the beautiful gardens stop into the winery or Cedric’s Tavern for a tasty beverage.
To close out the month of May is Asheville Beer Week! This is a week long event celebrating all things beer from May 23rd-31st. The last day of the month is Beer City Festival at Packs Square Park in Asheville, NC complete with craft beers and tunes. This is a super fun festival and a great time of year to visit Asheville!

Oowee Products had a fun trip to South Carolina last week. Gabriel visited several different locations. He showed his support for the local craft beer scene and delivered some Oowee leather sleeves. The day started at RJ Rockers in Spartanburg. Everyone was so enjoyable. What a great way to start the day!
After that, he ventured on to Brewery 85. This newer brewery is definitely worth a stop! Their 864 Weizen is a perfect mid-day craft beer. Some of the other stops were Thomas Creek, Quest, Greenville Beer Exchange, and the Community Tap. Everyone was hospitable and had a great selection of delicious craft beers!
