Best Gift for a Beer Lover

Getting to be that time of year. I'm thinking an engraved growler would be a nice gift. Still open to any other ideas?

 

An Artificial Liver!

 

I personally love collecting beer glasses. Some breweries have gift sets that include beer and a glass. I know Chimay and Boulevard do.

 

really just any beer that is not available in the state of MS, which pretty much means all the good stuff.

nothing like a friend coming over with a shitload of awesome brews for ya when you had no idea you were getting anything

 

Any kind of boxed beer/glass set is usually a good gift (in my book). Some favorites:

St. Bernadus Gift Box - 4 bottles (Abt. 12, Prior 8, Pater 6, Tripel) + chalice
Weihenstephaner Gift Box - 5 bottles (Hefe, Dunkel, Original, Korbinian, Vitus) + weizen glass

 

Umm. Beer? Ask their friends and see if you can find types they like.

 

Plan a long weekend away filled with brewery tours, tastings, etc. My sister did this for her husband, they went to Portland Maine and had a blast.

 

I came to this thread to post this, and this was the first response that showed up when I clicked the link. Kudos.

 

Great minds!

 

my in-laws ( who know nothing about craft beer, other than that I enjoy it ) got me this really nice set of glasses -

and representative beers for each glass ! Cool gifting!

 

Here is one that is a little tough but special. I homebrew. A good friend of mine loved a particular beer I had brewed a while back. His wife approached me about brewing some for him. She bought the ingredients and I brewed it. We made up a special label and gave him a case of his own special brew. My time was rewarded generously. She tells me every time he opens one (it is an ageable belgian triple) he tells her it is the greatest gift he has ever received. About once a month the wife brings us some home made food goodie to repay me for my time. She is an excellent baker!!!! This may be hard to pull off, but would be a great gift.

 

Gift cert for the best bottle shop in the area... hoping to get a gift cert for Grape and Gourmet (again)

 

Cash is always the best gift.

More beer, food, or doing my laundry for me all come in close second.

 

A stupid teku glass, am I right?

 

A gift certificate to Uber and I will get myself home.

 

Brewery specific beer glasses from his/her favorite brewery
Preferably snifter, tulip, and teku glasses

 

My cousin gave my brother a case of beer with his 6 packs of his four favorite beers. I thought it was genius. A gift card to a local bottle shop, any personalized gear is nice too (glasses, bottle opener).
