Five Star Gift Ideas

For your craft beer-loving son, there are several thoughtful gift ideas that cater to his passion for trying new brews. Here are a few suggestions to consider:

1. Craft Beer Subscription: Consider gifting your son a craft beer subscription service. These services deliver a curated selection of unique craft beers to his door on a regular basis. Choose one that offers a variety of styles and breweries, allowing him to explore different flavors and expand his beer knowledge.

2. Beer Tasting Set: A beer tasting set with different glasses designed for specific beer styles can enhance your son's drinking experience. Look for a set that includes glasses suitable for ales, stouts, lagers, and IPAs. Additionally, you could include a beer tasting notebook or journal where he can document his impressions and ratings of the beers he tries.

3. Homebrewing Kit: If your son enjoys experimenting with craft beer, a homebrewing kit could be the perfect gift. This would allow him to create his own unique brews and further explore the craft beer world. Choose a beginner kit that includes all the necessary equipment, ingredients, and instructions for his first batch.

4. Brewery Tour Experience: Give your son the opportunity to visit some of his favorite craft breweries by gifting him a brewery tour experience. Many breweries offer guided tours where he can learn about the brewing process, sample different beers, and maybe even meet some of the brewers. This would be a fun and educational gift that combines his love for craft beer with new and memorable experiences.

5. Beer Merchandise: Consider getting your son some beer-themed merchandise, such as t-shirts, hats, or pint glasses from his favorite breweries or beer festivals. Another idea is to look for beer-related books or magazines that cover topics like brewing techniques, beer history, or beer pairing with food.

6. Beer Festival Tickets: If there is a local beer festival happening in your area, surprise your son with tickets. This would give him the opportunity to try a wide range of craft beers from different brewers, and also to meet other craft beer enthusiasts. Beer festivals often offer live music, food, and other entertainment options, creating a festive and enjoyable atmosphere.

Remember, when selecting a gift for your son, consider his personal preferences and tastes. By choosing a gift that aligns with his passion for trying new craft beers, you can show him how well you know and appreciate his interests.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.

Madeline Moran Weiler says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
