Every beer fanatic should brew at least once, even if it’s with a simple extract kit like the gift sets available from Northern Brewer.  There are several kits available catering to a variety of tastes and interest levels.  If you want to take this gift idea to the next level, stop into your local homebrew shop for even more options.

It’s not a suit and tie but it’s a start

Been dying to get your favorite Beerknurd out of all those t-shirts?  A flannel from Munster Indiana legends 3 Floyds might get them into a collared shirt on the weekends for once.  If they won’t budge on T-shirts, 3 Floyds current lineup of tees is among our favorite beer merch offerings for 2023.

Pretentious Glassware

Pretentious Glassware might cost a pretty penny, but it will become a go to beer glass one day one.

 Hear us out, you need more glassware if it’s as cool as the hand blown art pieces from Pretentious Glass Company.  Yes, the glasses are pricey but they are handmade and each glass is completely unique, making them not only great quality but also great conversation starters.  Looking for a deal?  Check their “2nd’s Sale” section.  We can speak from experience when we say even the “flawed” glassware available on this page is every bit as beautiful as their full price glassware.

Flying Saucer Dad Hat

Wear what the real Beerknurds wear.  This unstructured casual dad hat from ’47 brand is emblazoned with our iconic Saucer logo.  It’s our go to style for day to day wear, from the bar to the golf course to our favorite brewery tour.

A Booze & Vinyl Christmas

Our personal beer & libations library now tallies over 120 books. After amsassing such a collection, undoubtedly, the books in the “Booze & Vinyl” series are among our very favorites.  The Christmas edition is not only fun way to start a new tradition you can revisit each Christmas season, it’s a great conversation starter at holiday gatherings.  If you are one of those folks who is especially Christmas music averse, the 2 standard editions are winners as well.

Maine Beer Company Lunch IPA Mustard

There is a ton of beer based food offerings out there but this mustard from Maine Beer Company might be our favorite.  Made in small batches, it’s the same mustard served at the Maine taproom. What’s more, the mustard is made using their world class IPA, Lunch.

If you wanna know what we bought for ourselves this year, here it is.  This is it.  This list of trips, challenges & experiences is an excellent checklist of things every true beer lover should do.  The rundown includes some of the best craft breweries in America, Macro brewing mainstays, plus bars, breweries and other can’t miss stops from around the globe.  Even after decades in the industry, we had only ticked a small number of the fun jaunts. This is a must have checklist for any beer traveler.

And the best gift of all…Flying Saucer beer
