On the twelfth day of 88Nine’s 12 Days of Christmas Gift Guide, we took on gifts for the beer lover(s) in your life.
Check out the gifts below.
A Champange-sized bottle of Miller High Life, $2.29/bottle
The Champagne of Beers is finally getting the bottle it deserves. Hurry over to Discount Liquor to snag one of the limited-edition 25.4oz bottles for the beer lover that isn’t too snobby to drink a High Life. Shout out to OnMilwaukee for reporting on this very important piece of news.
Beer Cap Maps, $16+
Have you ever come across a beer cap so pretty you wanted to keep it? Now you have a reason to: pop the cap and put it in the map! You can get a map for any state or for all of the states.
Wisconsin Craft Beer T-Shirt, $24
Know a beer lover that wears their heart on their sleeve? Well, if they can settle for their chest, then this shirtis for them. The t-shirt’s third iteration comes from Wisconsin maker Cracked Designs and features breweries as new as City Lights. And if they’re not into t-shirts, maybe they’d rather frame their love instead.
Good City Loyalty Program Membership, $50-60
Since opening last year, Good City Brewing has taken the city by storm, quickly growing to host a summer festival and add a hall and patron-accessible rooftop. If your beer lover has an affinity for this Milwaukee brewery, then a membership in the Good City Loyalty Program (adorably named Good Citizens) is a must.
Membership in the Loyalty Program includes: Taproom brew discounts (1/2 off drafts on Tuesday, $1 off drafts anytime, $2 off crowlers anytime), early entry to specialty bottle releases and a custom membership key.
Membership is $50 for returning Good Citizens and $60 for new members. Registration for the 2018 program closes 12/31 and memberships can be purchased at the brewery (2108 N Farewell Ave).
Beer Candles (Prices vary)
If beer relaxes you and candles relax you, then this gift will relax you two times over. Because it’s a candle, in a beer bottle. Snag one in the remnants of your favorite brew anywhere that sells Milwaukee goods (like Sparrow Collective or The Waxwing).
