The Captain’s Reserve has arrived. ⚓

🥃Set sail with a scent forged for the bold. Viking Jerk's Captain's Reserve Beard & Hair Oil—our custom take on a traditional, rugged Bay Rum.

Crafted with a sharp slap of bright bergamot, a deep heart of aromatic bay leaf, and the warm, fiery kick of clove, this oil is built to keep your beard soft and smelling like a legend, whether you are weathering a storm at sea or carousing on land.

This exclusive blend is inspired by our heavy-hitting, foot-stomping brothers in Hold Fast! 🏴‍☠️🎵If you want to catch them live, they will be rocking the stage at Celtic Fling at the Pennsylvania Renaissance Faire on June 27 & 28! Grab your kilts, prep your mugs, and make sure your beard is looking shipshape before you head through the gates.

⚓ Deployment Tested. Sailor Approved. ⚓

We can talk all day about how much we love Viking Jerk's B***y Polish, but nothing beats hearing from someone who put it to the test underway.

"I had the bottle of B***y Polish for quite some time in preparation for when my ship had to go out to sea. The Navy plumbing pipes are quite small so the only toilet paper we get is SINGLE PLY which... when you've needed to use the bathroom that 1, takes quite a while to get clean, but 2, that single ply isn't exactly silk.

In comes B***Y POLISH!!!

It is now as essential for being underway/on deployment as socks or toothpaste. Anyone who's been in the Navy knows that the standard Navy toilet paper is like near see-through sandpaper and one spray of B***y Polish with three to four sheets of single ply and it doesn't soak all the way through or rip which amazed me.

I will NEVER deploy without it."

— Senior Chief Petty Officer, U.S. Navy

B***y Polish turns ordinary toilet paper into a freshening wet wipe experience without carrying bulky packs of wipes. It's flushable, septic-safe, space-saving, and ready for deployments, camping trips, Renaissance Faires, road trips, and everyday life.

⚓ Available in Original and Coconut-Free formulas
⚓ Equivalent to approximately 150-300 wet wipes per bottle
⚓ Handmade in Baltimore, Maryland

⚔️ Meme Monday ⚔️

Somewhere, 600 years ago, a merchant was absolutely saying:

"My lord, this chest is perfect for storing your valuables, family heirlooms, and up to two lightly-used relatives."

People haven't changed nearly as much as historians would like us to believe. 😂

What modern product could you imagine being sold like this?

🍄 Hello, Fungal Friends!

Just popping up to share a little sneak peek of some mushroomy goodness headed to the New Jersey Renaissance Faire this weekend.

These little fungi are ready to find new homes, make new friends, and cause a perfectly reasonable amount of woodland whimsy.

Tell us: are you more 🍄 red cap, 🍄 green cap, or 🍄 "one of each"?

The door is about to burst open.
They are ready. Are you?

Spotted at the New Jersey Renaissance Faire: A tactical hygiene intervention! 🧼👀

Meet Chantrelle Snorts, the shire’s resident mushroom farmer. She is currently locked in a fierce battle for the coveted title of "Filthiest Peasant."

We caught her red-handed across from our tent, blissfully sculpting mud on the banks of Lake Winston. Now, if there is one thing Jackie & Jerk absolutely cannot abide, it is a filthy Saxon! 👑🛡️

In true, Viking fashion, we decided to stage an intervention. We gifted Chantrelle a bar of Viking Jerk's Tallow Soap to civilize her into a Historically Hygienic Dane.

Judging by the look on her face... she was not entirely thrilled with the prospect of being clean! 😅

⚔️ Get Clean Like a Dane
Don't live like a filthy Saxon. You can upgrade your raid-ready hygiene routine today:

In Person: Visit the Rigr Crafts tent at the New Jersey Renaissance Faire all season long!

Fellas… this is a trap older than medieval manuscripts. 😅

“I don’t care” is rarely a complete sentence. Proceed with caution, ask follow-up questions, and perhaps offer tacos. 🌮😂

What’s the correct response here? Wrong answers encouraged. 👀

⚔️ Just a little sneak peek at what we’ve hauled to the New Jersey Renaissance Faire… 👀
Beard care, handcrafted treasures, Viking Highland Coos, and probably at least one thing you absolutely do not need but will emotionally require.
Come find us this weekend and say hi! 🐮🔥
