Sometimes Braamfontein and inner Joburg City can be too much, that distinct-yet-nebulous haze of garbage-stink feels a little thicker, and none of the beautiful and super doopa hipsters you pass by make eye contact with you, when that happens…it’s time to get out of the city.

You don’t even have to go too far, maybe Zoo Lake or Magaliesberg ,as long as your eyes can stretch beyond 800 metres, and you can smell smells that don’t set off alarms in your brain. Call a few of your mates and hit the road…oh, and…you will also need a Smart Ice Core, because it’s all sorts of BOSS, proper shandis if you ask me.

If you don’t already know what a Smart Ice Core is; it’s an extension of Castle Lite’s Ice Core edition, it’s totally rad man…complete with a kick ass insulation technology that ensures that Castle Lite cans remain extra cold for up to 48 hours once it has already been cooled (this is obviously dependent on the temperature it’s kept at), plus it has a temperature gage that will tell you if your beer is good to drink or if you need to put the Smart Ice Core in a cooler place to keep it extra cold.

A little birdie told me that there are only 150 Smart Ice Core packs in the country, now how is that for exclusivity? Castle Lite done did take things to new heights this time around, the design, the portability, the durability…levels mchana.

Perfect for a rooftop party or that well-deserved break from the bustle of the city, perfect for a bae-cation *wink-wink*
