How would one Wisconsin-ify a nutcracker? Well, having it crack cold ones instead of nuts would probably be a good place to start.

Enter: The Beercracker.

It has not one, but two beer openers, a gold scepter with a tiny can of Miller Lite on top, and a mini pack of beer wrapped in a red bow at its feet.

Miller Lite will be releasing the limited-edition Beercracker as a part of its holiday collection this year, according to a news release.

Last year, the beer brand came up with the Christmas Tree Keg Stand. And before that? "Beernaments" (which are back for a third year, BTW).

The Beercracker — which stands at 13¼ inches tall — can open both beer bottles and cans, the release said. Similar to how a nutcracker's mouth cracks nuts, the Beercracker's mouth cracks brewskis. Its blue top hat, featuring part of the brand's logo, is removable and doubles as an opener as well.

The Beercracker sports a blue royal-looking suitcoat with gold hop leaf buttons, white pants and blue boots with beer barley detailing. Its cape has a pilsner foam-colored lining with a pattern of holiday lights that look like hops.

Miller Lite will be releasing 100 Beercrackers a day for three days — Wednesday, Thursday and Friday — at shop.millerlite.com, a release said. It costs $29.95.

The 2023 holiday collection, which is already live, also includes a festive claw clip set, a sweater, beanie and wearable blanket featuring hops-looking lights, playing cards and more.
