    My wife enjoys good beer, but her knowledge of breweries, styles, etc. is limited, so I'm always impressed when she makes the effort to come through with a quality gift. I woke up to a mixed 6-pack highlighted by Old Rasputin and Chimay Blue. Coincidentally, I had gotten her a bomber of Espresso Oak Aged Yeti, one of her favorites. Anybody else get a basket full of fermented goodies?

    Cool idea, but no, the only beer I got this weekend, is what I purchased

    That is really cool, but no Easter bunny beer gifts here. For that matter, if we can all safely assume that the baskets are indeed filled by our significant other and in fact not a giant bunny, than we can also safely assume that filling such a basket would alert my wife as to what beer actually costs. No matter how great an Easter morning beer basket would be, the resulting "awakening" would be far worse.....

    I sort of got a beer basket for Easter but in a bit different format. It was also my birthday so my girlfriend built me a cake.

    I acknowledge I found a keeper, and it wasn't my intention to make this a "contest", but it looks like @Tylertut is the winner so far.


    Fortunately, my wife only buys for me at the place 5 minutes from home (which is a bit overpriced). I typically buy at the places near my office, which are much more reasonable. :wink:
