American Craft Beer The Best Craft Beer, Breweries, Bars, Brewpubs, Beer Stores, And Restaurants Serving Serious Beer.
If you haven’t already tapped into one of our many Holiday Guides – we’ve no sympathy for you. You could have already had something wonderful for that craft beer lover on your list. But instead you’re drinking too much and in a desperate scramble for something (anything!) that might please. With Christmas just days away, It’s simply too late for us to help you with big craft beer gift ideas (that’s on you).
But stocking stuffers? We can help you with stocking stuffers…
Growler Koozie – Hey they’re inexpensive and can be practical… and they’ll stuff easily into a stocking. Chances are your local brewery sells them as part of their swag line…And Green Flash has a decent one here.
Craft Beer Playing Cards – Playing cards and drinking beer have a pretty storied history. They’re affordable and let’s face it they were made for each other. Bicycle sets the standard when it comes to playing cards and they’re readily available in any major city. They even have a deck that’s dedicated to craft breweries.
Craft Beer Tees – T-shirts hardly qualify as “big present” fare – but they make for opulent stocking stuffers. And a T-shirt from a shrewdly chosen brewery, will ensure that they’ll get used. For our readers over in London, we love the T-shirts that Beavertown offers. But creatively designed craft beer T-shirts are available at most savvy breweries. Plus you can grab a quick beer while you’re there which you’ll no doubt need.
Brewery Gift Cards – Again so obvious, yet so perfect. Many breweries now sell gift cards that will allow that craft beer lover on your list the freedom to fill up their own growlers, with exactly the beers that they’re interested in. And, again you can get a drink while you’re there.
Creative and Unusual Bottle Openers – They’re not that expensive and we guarantee they’ll get used – creative and unusual bottle openers are always a welcome stocking stuffer. And the weirder the better. We’re big fans of Kebo’s One-Handed Bottle Opener and there’s also this Authentic Gargoyle Bottle Opener in Antique Brass that we’re crazy about.
