When it comes to buying a beer gift for a dad, there are a few things to consider.
Firstly, you'll want to think about his taste preferences, and whether he likes a particular type of beer or brewery. We sometimes suggest if you're not sure, going by colour can be a good indication. Do you see him drinking pale, amber or dark beers? This is a good place to start. Often craft beer bars will have little shots of their beer next to the pumps as lots of us make an initial decision based on the colour.
Secondly, you'll want to consider the budget. Here are some gift ideas that may appeal to a dad who enjoys beer:
Blow the Budget!
Beer of the Month Club: If you know Dad would enjoy discovering new and exciting beers every month, why not gift him a membership to the Beer of the Month Club and get ready for some delicious surprises? He'll receive a selection of carefully curated beers, tasting notes and a pub quiz every month perfect for enjoying with friends or simply relaxing after a long day.
It's a lower initial outlay, especially if you go for a 6 bottle club and he's going to be reminded of your generous gift every month when a new box arrives. You can set this up for just 3 or 6 months instead of it running on forever.
Beer Gifts Under £20
Dad's Thirst Aid Kit: Like a mini pub, this neat gift box has 4 beers, 2 snacks, glass and of course pub quiz. Perfect to brighten Dad's Father's Day Weekend.
Under £30 and Free Delivery
Icebox: If Dad enjoys a cold beer in the garden or would appreciate a portable, reusable ice bucket, then this is the gift for him. We’ve got a refill pack on offer which gives you another 6 beers for just £9.50 when you buy the Icebox. So, you never know, he might even share!
Beer Gifts Under £40
The Real Ale Case: Perfect for the Dads whose tipple of choice is a pint of cask ale. Bottle conditioned ales are hand made and bottled and contain a small amount of yeast to continue their fermentation and improve after bottling. They’re getting harder to source so we continue to specialise in them as they are a perennial best seller. Each case contains 12 x 500ml classic real ales.
We hope this has helped and you’ve got a few suggestions. If you would prefer Dad to choose his own, there is always the option of a gift voucher. Alternatively, what about a personalised beer glass? Funky Pigeon do a great range. If seeing how beer is made and sampling it at source is more his thing your local brewer is generally very happy to host a brewery tour. There will even be a few samples at the end. Check out the website of Dad’s favourite brewery or give us a call if you’d like a suggestion.
Ultimately, the best beer gift for a dad will depend on his personal preferences and interests, but if he likes beer, you can’t go far wrong with a beery gift
