Make it a very beery Christmas this year

The Bridge Road Brewers and Carwyn Cellars advent calendars might have already sold out in super quick time but there are still a number of great craft beer Christmas gift ideas out there to make festive shopping super easy this year. We take a look at some of them.

The 100 Can Case $499

Sort all your holiday needs in one purchase and support your local breweries at the same time with this whopper of a stocking filler available via Craft Cartel’s registered pre-sale only. Featuring 25 indie breweries, like Hawkers, Young Henrys, Moon Dog, Two Birds, Sauce Brewing and more, plus a range of styles, from Pale Ales to Brown Ales, there’s something for all tastes. Taking two people to carry, the 100 cans come in a custom-made timber box and buyers will also get 10 $20 vouchers to spend on the Craft Cartel website.

The Craft Beer Collection $27

Despite being a touch smaller than the 100 Can Case, this six-pack still carries plenty of weight. With the likes of Bentspoke’s Crankshaft IPA, Philter’s XPA and Young Henrys’ Newtowner Pale Ale, this features some of the beers most critical to craft’s evolution in Australia – hence making it a smart buy for those new to the craft world or those old heads who’ll appreciate the quality. Also in the pack, available from Dan Murphy’s and BWS stores, are: Kaiju’s Krush Tropical Pale Ale, Zytho’s Zesty Pale Ale and Garage Project’s Beer.

Such was COVID-19’s impact on our going out habits for large chunks of 2020 there has no doubt been a 1970s throwback craze going on in the ‘burbs where people have been setting up bars in their homes.

For the 12 days of Christmas my true love gave to me a new beer to crack in to each day, making it a holiday to remember, no question. Available from Dan Murphy’s and BWS stores, the box allows you to open a new window on each of the 12 days to reveal the new beer inside.
