Your Questions About Beer Gift Pack

6 pack beer as christmas gift?

I want to get myself and my friends some special beer this christmas. So I decided to look up some winter ales. I am stuck between some choices. Sierra Nevada Celebration, New Belgiu 2 Degrees Below Winter Ale, and from asking this question before I on here. I was recommended by 2 people to try Black Butte Porter

of the 3 which do you recommend for myself and as a gift to 2 of my buddies.

New Belgium, Sierra Nevada or Black Butte

Please do not give anyother beers then the ones I stated about becuase I dont want no Sam Adams or no mumbo jumbo. Please only give your choice among the 3 or dont answer this question!

What is the best imported beer that is widely available?

My boyfriend’s birthday is coming up and part of his gift is going to be a 6-pack of beer. I wanted to get a good import beer, but have no idea what to look for. He usually drinks Budlight, but I assume that is just because he is young and it is relatively cheap. My mother mentioned Amber Bock…I just don’t know. What would you suggest?

Need help identifying a beer label!!!?

My brother in law received a gift pack of various beers. He really liked this beer but he doesn’t remember what it was called. He does remember that the bottle was brown, it had a green label with a FROG IN A TUXEDO on it. He said something about on the box it saying, “It makes you hoppy” or something like that. Any ideas??? Thanks!

How can I get German beer in USA?

My b/f went to Germany a few years back and is still raving about a beer there called “Isolomer” (Im not sure if that is the correct spelling though). I would LOVE to get him a pack of it for his birthday, or as an extra Christmas gift, but I cannot seem to find it anywhere!
Any ideas would be great.
Thanks so much.

Gift for pregnant friend that she will enjoy after she has the baby?

My husband and I are going to a diaper party for our friends who are having a baby next month. The soon to be mom is having a shower of her own where she will receive gifts so she decided to throw this for her boyfriend since his birthday is coming up soon. Anyways its a keg/diaper party, where the price for the keg is a pack of diapers. I don’t drink beer so I technically don’t have to bring diapers ( my husband will) so I want to bring something for the soon to be mom that she can enjoy after she has the baby. Any suggestions?

How do you refer to a preference for imported beer?

I have several relatives who like expensive, imported beer. As a gift for them, I bought six 6-packs of nice beer and will give each relative a six pack containing one each of the 6 types. The hope is they will have a chance to try a beer or two they might not otherwise have tried. Since I don’t know anything about such beers, I made a list by asking bar tenders to tell me what varities are popular these days.

In the course of buying these beers, I have found myself at a loss to describe just what belongs in this category. I understand the concept of “fine” wines and/or liquors, but when it comes to beer, I really don’t have a clue. Clearly there is more to it then “expensive” beers or “imported” beers and I suspect my relatives might be insulted if I used either of those terms to refer to their beer preferences.

Even as I write this question I can hear people saying, “What is your problem?” But they don’t know my family. It seems they fall into two camps. In the one camp are the folks for whom I am buying this beer. And the other camp is made up of folks who accuse the first group of being snobs who are just trying to show off with their beer brand choices. This causes a fair degree of defensiveness in the first group. I don’t want to insult anyone, I just want to give a gift that my relatives might enjoy.

Can anyone out there identify with this and tell me a safe, noninsulting way to refer to my relatives’ beer preference?

Any help, thoughts, insights will be welcomed without judgment.

Can I ship beer from SC to a friend who lives in SC?

I want to send a buddy of mine a housewarming gift but I cannot visit him for some time. He and his wife love tasting new beers so I thought it would be fun to ship a variety pack to them. Can I do this? We both live in SC (Greenville and Columbia respectively).
