To kick off their Living Barrel Series, Funky Buddha Brewery in Florida is taking on the flavor profile of a classic summer cocktail. Piña Colada Ale starts out as an imperial cream ale made with real pineapple and coconut before being aged for months in Jamaican rum casks. It's then bottled at 10.8% ABV and hits all the right flavorful notes that you'd want from a Piña Colada but in the form of 22oz of beer.

Benchmade Automatic Knife ($216).
Hard Graft No Fold Wallet ($111).

By streamlining the materials and process, the Open Source House cuts costs and time without sacrificing design. The 1,200 square foot structure opted out of traditional building practices and instead used wood panels as their main material, eliminating the need for plastering and painting and the expense that comes with them. These panels were cut and varnished off-site and cover the walls, floors, and ceilings, creating a minimalist aesthetic. The open floor plan consists of a living room, kitchen, mezzanine, and upper-level bedrooms and bathrooms. Glazed doors provide a natural light source as well as access to an exterior terrace. If you like what you see, Studiolada Architects have shared the plans free of charge.

No one ever called Frankenstein pretty — and it's doubtful you'd say that about Classified Moto's Frank, which is the point of the build. The second collaboration between Classified Moto and Rebel Yell bourbon, Frank seems to be a total abomination at first glance. Starting with a sporty Triumph Speed Triple donor, a totally custom-made single sided swingarm was fabbed up and mated to a massive ATV tire. A shortened subframe carries a hand-stitched seat, with the original front forks carrying a knobby Kenda front tire. In another tribute to Mary Shelley's monster, the tank is overlaid with text from the novel. The beast will be up for auction in September 2017. Find out more on Rebel Yell's website.
Virgil Abloh's Off White cult label brings its distinct style to eyewear with these Warby Parker x Off White Sunglasses. All three blacked out frames share the same basic geometry but adjusted for three different sizes. The "Small" looks much like a stretched-out version of the "Medium," while the "Large" is like a squished version, with a more vertical appearance. Highly limited, all three also offer Warby's traditionally excellent build and lens quality.
Its name is a mouthful. It pales in comparison to all the extra capabilities you can add to the Motorola Moto Z2 Force Phone. Compatible with all existing Moto Mods, you can snap on everything from a projector to Hasselblad camera with "just works" ease. It retains the 5.5-inch shatterproof screen from the prior model and adds a dual-camera system that pairs a 12-megapixel f/2.0 color shooter with a monochrome twin for iPhone-like background blur and pure black & white shooting. Powered by a Snapdragon 835 processor with 4GB of RAM, it should be plenty snappy and comes in three colors depending on your carrier of choice.
As a company synonymous with sterling silver, pale blue, and diamonds, black isn't a color often associated with Tiffany & Co. That's the defining trait of its new CT60 DLC Watch. The latest version of the CT60, itself inspired by a distinctive Movado/Tiffany's timepiece owned by FDR, has a stainless steel, black DLC coated case with a black dial, white metal appliqué Arabic numerals, and a date window at 6 o'clock. Made in Switzerland, it's available as a 42mm chronograph or 40mm time-only model.

Hawaii is known for its beaches and volcanoes and the Volcano Mini House puts you right in the middle of both. Situate at the base of the world's most active volcano, the tiny home sits on a foundation of blackened lava. The 450-foot accommodation operates off-grid and offers a kitchenette, living room, and bathroom with a shower. Ocean views can be seen from the lofted bedroom, providing a rare glimpse of the smoky aftermath from the lava flowing into the water. Aside from the immediate attractions, the Mermaid Ponds, black sand beaches, and a 100-foot lava waterfall are just a short trip away.
The result of a collaboration between Bentley's bespoke arm Mulliner and Plymouth-based Princess Yachts, the Continental GT Convertible Galene Edition takes its inspiration from nautical design. The exterior is done in Glacier White, with matching bodywork and Sequin Blue lower bright ware that recalls the colors of the sea. The interior, covered by a contrasting dark blue roof in poor conditions, is done in shades of cream, gray, and beige, and complemented by a Pinstripe Walnut center console that's mirrored in the trunk's floor. Powered by 500 hp, 4.0L V8, it has plenty of speed, with 21" propeller wheels that give it excellent handling. Limited to just 30 examples worldwide.
Working from home is more common than ever — but a home office can be a drag, constantly reminding you of what you need to get done and pulling you away from your life away from work. Designed by Francesc Rifé for Spanish film JMM, the HO Office Cube offers an interesting compromise, functioning as a full office when extended, then folding up to become a simple console. Inside, there's a file cabinet, shelving, integrated power, an LED task light, and a stool, while the dark-wood veneer and lacquer exterior will blend in with most any decor.

Overlooking the water in Southampton, the Island Creek House is a departure from the usual New York City high-rises Tamarkin Co. is known for. Along with a natural stone foundation, old-growth cypress harvested from the south form the rustic facade. These timber planks have been slow-cured in deep water for a century to provide a durable exterior that will slowly weather to a grey hue over time. Internally, the natural palette continues with new-growth cypress-clad walls and ceilings, a floating concrete staircase, and large picture windows mounted in blackened steel. Outdoor spaces are created by a top story covered terrace and a cantilevered deck, expanding the interior out into the surrounding landscape.

You might not know that Johnson Controls built the first electric room thermostat back in 1883, and now, that same company is partnering with Microsoft for the GLAS smart thermostat. GLAS features a translucent touchscreen display and monitors temperature, air quality, energy usage, and calendar information. It's also able to be used with voice control thanks to Cortana voice services and will run on Microsoft's Windows 10 IoT Core operating system.
The most powerful road-legal Lotus ever is about to hit the street. The Evora GT430 takes the already-lightweight Evora and does what Lotus has always done best — shave pounds and improve handling, along with a significant bump in power. A supercharged version of the 3.5 liter Toyota V6 produces 430 hp, while carbon fiber body panels and aluminum and titanium alloys bring weight down almost two pounds under the base Evora. 0-60 comes in 3.9 seconds, along with the unheard of feel and handling Lotus has been known for since their founding.
A sleek alternative to a smart watch, the Orii Smart Ring gives you the ability to makes calls, send messages, and interact with your voice assistant without your phone. The key is bone conduction technology, which transmits sound privately by sending vibrations directly to your ear.

Available in three colors, all of which are meant to complement a broad range of outfits.
In 1950, Enzo Ferrari's fledgling company had been in existence for only three years. Four wealthy brothers — Vittorio, Giannino, Paolo, and Umberto Marzotto owned some 20 or more Ferraris between them, lending a large hand in keeping the company stable through those early years. Accomplished drivers in their own right, Giannino won the legendary Mille Miglia twice. After a crash put the car out of commission, it was rebuilt with the bodywork seen here. Known as the "Uovo", or egg, the result of an attempt at weight reduction and aerodynamic streamlining. A one-off example of early Ferraris, the 166 MM/212 is an important car in Ferrari's racing heritage.
Many people prefer to be as far away from severe weather as possible. For others, though, storms are a real thrill — and Extreme Tornado Tours is the best way to get a front-row seat for the action. Operating out of both Oklahoma City and Denver, these tours are run by experienced professionals in specialized vans packed with weather-monitoring equipment. Hotel stays for your 7-10 day excursion, and a guaranteed window seat in the van, are included in the price, meaning all you need to worry about is your food, flight, and camera.
Named after the patron saint of music and poetry, the Hotel Saint Cecilia offers stylish accommodations with an emphasis on 60s culture. Each of the five suites, six poolside bungalows, and three studios are decked out like a Rolling Stones crash pad with an eclectic mix of rich colors, velvety textures, and vintage pieces.

The property's lush gardens provide rock star-worthy privacy for the 50-foot lap pool. An adjacent wooden arbor offers poolside dining, while the rooftop terrace adds an intimate space for open air cocktails with views of downtown Austin.
If you opt for a modular watch, you want the convenience of several watches in one. But most don't employ as many functions and features as the Modular Watch from A Matter Of Time. The modular watch is comprised of the base, dial, bezel, and strap and each comes with at least one additional option. Both 39mm bases are powered by Seiko automatic movement, feature a sapphire glass, luminous blue hands, and all the components are easy to swap out as you transition from one setting to the next.
The new flagship of the XJ range, the Jaguar XJR575 Sedan is named for the output of its 5.0L supercharged V8. When combined with the electronic active differential to help control the delivery of all that power and maximize traction, the four-door moves from a standstill to 62 mph in just 4.4 seconds and hits its top speed of 186 in an equally impressive 44 seconds. The interior also sees upgrades in the form of a larger touchscreen, 4G Wifi, and diamond-quilted seating, while the exterior — available in two exclusive colors — gets a custom rear spoiler, side sills, front bumper, and air intakes, as well as 20-inch Farallon glossy black wheels.

The hype continues to build surrounding the upcoming fight between Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor. And one of the highlights of the recent promotional tour was this custom pinstripe suit worn by McGregor. Designed by David August, the 3-piece outfit looks from afar as if it's a simple pinstripe, but the stripes themselves spell out the words "F*ck You" in vertical repeat — an aggressive stance perfectly fitted for McGregor's personality. And now, it's being made available to you as well, featuring details like French facing construction stacked buttons, purple camouflage silk lining, and hand-stitched detailing. Each suit arrives numbered and signed by the CEO.
With a pianist and a percussionist living under the same roof, the Music Box House is all about the acoustics. The home is acoustically separated into two spaces — a piano studio and a rehearsal space. As a timpanist in the Oregon Symphony, the husband's rehearsal space is housed on the lower level, keeping the loud sounds of his instruments isolated from the rest of the house. The main floor consists of the piano studio where the wife can teach her students, as well as an open living room and outdoor area for recitals. The home doesn't just cater to its musical hosts. A rooftop deck also takes advantage of its impressive setting with views of the Portland cityscape, forest park, and Mt. St. Helens and Mt. Rainier in the distance.

Started as a hobby car for Mercedes engineer Jürgen Eberle, the Mercedes E-Class All-Terrain 4×4² is now a full-blown concept. While it's based on the standard All-Terrain, it borrows some parts from other models, including the portal axles of the G500 4x4² and a 328 hp, 3.5L turbo V6 from the E400 wagon. It's also 1.5 inches taller and nearly eight inches wider, a stance accommodated by new carbon fiber fender flares, all of which gives it clearance of over 16 inches, approach and departure angles of 35.8 and 35.6 degrees, respectively, and the ability to tackle almost 20 inches of water. No word yet on if it will ever see production, but given MB's history of building absurd off-roaders, we wouldn't rule it out.
Rooted to the ground by a foundation of stilts, the Forest House is a modern campsite in the Northern California woods. The home is comprised of a series of small cabins, connected by a wooden path. These small structures house a variety of functions including a kitchen, sleeping quarters, a bun house, and common areas for gathering and dining. The timber frames are topped by canvas roofs, giving the rooms a tent quality but with the modern luxuries of home. Direct links to the outdoors are provided by expansive sliding doors, while large glazed openings allow for views of the surrounding treetops to the interior.
