Hanukkah Gifts for Beer Lovers

Hanukkah Gifts for Him: Start with a Beer Box

CITY BREW TOURS BEER CLUB

Beer box subscriptions are a thoughtful gift for any self-described beer nerd out there, and the benefits are obvious. With a recurring membership, your beer-loving loved one gets to sit back and have everything sent to them. There is no need to visit bottle shops or stop in for beers to go at breweries—beer boxes will deliver the goods straight to their doorstep.

In the crowded field of beer box memberships, though, the City Brew Tours Beer Club stands out above the rest. This beer box is America’s only traveling craft beer club, as City Brew Tours sends its team of beer experts to hunt down the best cans of craft beer from independent breweries in all corners of the country.

What makes a great Hanukkah gift for craft beer nerds? The City Brew Tours Beer Club is a great gift for beer lovers because of its continued commitment to beer variety—and quality. Each box is stuffed with an assortment of beer styles, with previous boxes featuring beer styles such as coffee hazelnut porters, Kveik sour ales and hazy double IPAs. This Beer Club is a unique way to explore regional beer styles, like freshly-hopped IPAs from the Pacific Northwest or corn lagers from the Midwest.

To top it all off, the City Brew Tours Beer Club members get exclusive access to weekly, interactive live streams featuring brewers, beer historians and other interesting guests. If you’ve got a hardcore beer enthusiast in your life, the City Brew Tours Beer Club gives them front row access to chat with the brewers who actually made the beers they’re drinking.

There are several options for membership, making it a fantastic option for a beer gift. Subscriptions come in 1-month, 3-month or 6-month increments, with savings on the longer subscriptions. The City Brew Tours Beer Club is a gift for beer lovers that keeps on giving.

BREWERY TOURS

If you’re in the market for Hanukkah gifts for beer lovers who like to go behind the scenes, brewery tours may be the move for you. Guided brewery tours can be taken on foot or in provided transportation, and they take guests to breweries in a given area to sample different regional beers.

Nationwide, no one runs a better tour than City Brew Tours. The brewery tour operator now runs tours in 22 cities across the U.S. and Canada, and that number is constantly growing.

City Brew Tours sets itself apart from other tour operators due to its high-quality tours and professionalism, having run beer tours for more than a decade now. Tours include tasting stops at 3 different breweries, roundtrip transportation and guided entertainment. City Brew Tours also offers unique brewery tours on foot in New York and Philadelphia, which allows tour guests to soak in the city in between breweries.

Whichever tour you choose from City Brew Tours, they take guests behind the scenes to see where the beer is made. Tour guests get to learn the brewing process at some of America’s most famous breweries, and that is a memory-making beer gift for any true beer geek.

BEER CRAFTS

Most beer geeks over time accumulate a bunch of cans, bottles and other brewery memorabilia that, over time, tends to collect dust. What if you found a way to repurpose some of their nostalgic beer knick-knacks and turn them into craft beer gifts for Hanukkah?

There are a lot of great beer crafting ideas out there that anyone can make. Yes, even if you have little to no prior crafting experience, there are some easy and inexpensive crafting ideas to help you make personalized beer gifts for men.

One of our favorite beer crafts is turning paper brewery coasters into unique, laminated and re-usable coasters. The process is quite easy and requires just paper coasters, some cling film and some sort of epoxy or resin covering.

You can also make coasters with your beer lover’s favorite brewery logo if you have a wood burning kit. Watch this video to see how you can make one-of-a-kind coaster gifts for Hanukkah using wood burning techniques:

Crafting is also a great opportunity to make unique Hanukkah presents for the craft beer geek women in your life. Grab some cans of their favorite craft beer and turn them into candles or planters for desk succulents. For projects like that, you only need a simple can cutter to take the top of the can off, then you can fill the empty craft beer can with whatever candle wax or succulent you like.

CUSTOM KOOZIES

Craft beer lovers don’t leave the house without a trusted koozie to keep their beer cold, everyone knows that.

Customized koozies are a small (but thoughtful) gift for beer lovers, and you can even include a Hanukkah theme in your koozie! You can find a design with Sufganiyah (jelly donuts) or dreidels to add some festive flair to your custom koozie.
