Why Drink Topless?
There are many reasons why you should Drink Topless, but here are just a few.
A smooth pour
Removing the top allows for an uninterrupted pour. Leaving you less full and ready to grab another. Ditch the glass and drink straight from the can.
Enjoy the full taste
By removing the entire top, the Draft Top tool allows your nose to enjoy the aroma of your beverage instead of the aluminum top. Enhancing the flavor and allowing you to enjoy it as if it were a glass.
Garnish your drinks
Spicing up your favorite canned drinks is even easier when you Drink Topless. Whether you like cocktails or just a little citrus in your beer, we’ve got you un-covered.

By opening the entire top, the Draft Top tool allows you to drink from the can even faster. Great for showing off your skills to your friends or for das bootsrennen.
Getting Creative
Topless cans are perfect for those right-brained individuals who want to get their craft on.
They are also perfect for those who just want to play drinking games such as beer pong or beer die.
How to Use the Draft Top
Drinking Topless only takes 4 simple steps.
1. Grab top edge of can
Or bottom edge of can
Don’t grab the center of the can!
2. Open Handle and place tool on the top of the can
3. Squeeze handle and rotate
4. Align rim with handle notches and slowly rock to open the top
How Does it Work?
When the handle is squeezed, it forces the center gear to rotate causing each of the four splitters to synchronously extend towards the rim of the can allowing the Draft Top tool to open a variety of can sizes.
Durable Design
The tool is made of high impact ABS plastic allowing it to withstand the wear and tear of every day life such as:
A night in a cooler
Engineered for Performance
The splitters are designed to be safe to the touch and last for hundreds of cans.
Small enough to take on the go
The Draft Top is about the size of most smartphones and can easily fit into your pocket.
Simply click the handle closed for safe storage and slip it into your pocket to take it anywhere.

FAQ’s
- Why would I want this? Instead of smashing your nose against the aluminum top, you can smell the aroma of your drink. Not to mention a smooth pour and no clugging which makes you feel full. Or just Send It.
- When will this be delivered? We are anticipating early 2020.
- Do you ship overseas? Yes. Separate shipping rates apply.
- Can you get different colors? There will be additional color options in the future. Sign up for details or contact us at hello@drafttop.com
- Are you able to put another logo on the Draft Top? Yes, but not during Indiegogo. Minimum orders apply. Reach out to us at hello@drafttop.com for more details
- Does it leave a sharp edge? No, the cut occurs inside the rim of the can and folds the aluminum into the rim.
- Are the blades sharp? No, in fact they are purposefully dull. We call them splitters. Technically they are splitting the metal and not cutting it.
- Will the splitters rust? If left in water for a few days or covered in soda or beer there is a likelihood that they will develop surface rust. They are made from stainless steel.
- Can it be washed/is it dishwasher safe? We don’t recommend using it in the dishwasher as it could affect longevity of the tool. We recommend just rinsing it using warm water after each session.
- How long will it last? We’ve tested samples on hundreds of cans and have prototypes that are still being used well above 1,000 cans
- Does it grab the top? No. If the top falls completely in, you have to flip it on its side and pull it out. If it partially cuts the lid, you can use the tool to fold it into the can like the tab normally folds in.
- So the top just falls in the can? Sometimes. It all depends on how the tool is used. If it partially cuts the lid, you can use the tool to fold it into the can like the tab normally folds in.
- Isn’t the top dirty? Maybe but its the same top that you put your lips on when drinking from the can the normal way. So just Drink Topless! Its a lot better.
- Does it work on Tall boys? Yes, most 16oz to 19oz aluminum cans. It does not work on most 24oz cans or the Fosters Oil Can
- Does it work on crowlers? No – those are good for a nice set of glasses
- How does it work? When holding the tool in either hand, the top right corner has a part of the handle that sticks out. When you push this in the handle opens and retracts the splitters to the center. With the opposite hand holding the can near the top or bottom near the bends, you place the tool on the can and slowly squeeze while starting to rotate. The four splitters move outward from the center when you squeeze the handle. They puncture the inside rim of the can just below the top and split the aluminum open as you rotate the tool. A minimum of a quarter twist is needed to fully remove the top but sometimes it take a half or full twist. Below the handle are grooves designed to allow you to rest them on the rim and push the lid in. Remember, the objective is to open the top not take the lid out.
- Do you or will you sell replacement parts? Not at this time.
