Kraken's Toast Tiki Mug

A note from the designer, Brian Kesinger about this mug:

Legend speaks of a monstrous creature who lurks in the depths of the sea. For centuries this beast has haunted many a sailor’s nightmares but we now know that it's just been misunderstood. The ocean can be a solitary place and the Mighty Kraken just wants somebody to share a drink with! The problem is; it’s a little clingy. His quest for companionship is often misconstrued as nothing more than vicious attacks.

With many a shipwreck in its wake, it’s your turn to raise a glass...or a barrel...to your new unfathomable friend!

    Release the Pour-ken!

    The Kraken’s Toast Tiki Mug is an absolute monster… in the best possible way.

    From the moment I unboxed it, I was hooked — tentacle, barrel, and all. The sculpt is outrageously detailed, with texture and movement that make it feel like this legendary sea beast might slide right off the shelf and demand a refill. It’s bold, dramatic, and impossible to ignore — exactly what a proper tiki mug should be.

    And honestly? I love the backstory. The “misunderstood” Kraken just looking for someone to share a drink with? That’s the kind of clingy energy I can support — especially when it comes in ceramic form. If this is what companionship looks like, I’ll gladly be dragged into the depths… as long as I can bring the rum.

    It holds a generous pour (or barrel), feels substantial in the hand, and instantly becomes the centerpiece of any bar setup. Guests don’t just notice it — they gravitate toward it like sailors ignoring very obvious warnings.

    This isn’t just a mug. It’s a conversation starter. A ship-wrecker. A shelf-dominator.

    Raise a glass to your new unfathomable friend — just be warned… once you bring the Kraken home, there’s no going back overboard.

    10/10 would happily get pulled under again.
