Beer Gift Baskets - Great Gifts For Any Occasion!
6.08.08 # 17:50 # Beer Baskets # 51 CommentsHaving trouble deciding what to get for that buddy of yours and running out of time? Many people out there have trouble picking gifts. There are few things more dreaded than not being able to locate a present soon enough for that special day or big event. Fear not, we have a solution for you. We have searched high and low to discern what may be the most universal gift of all.
Beer baskets are the near perfect item for anyone on your list. Other than an AA meeting or a baptism, you can send one of these babies to any gathering and someone will enjoy it. Oh, and guys? Probably no good for your wedding anniversary. On the other hand, ladies would be well advised to get these for their men, who in general would be ecstatic to receive such a perfect bundle. If you can wrap the beer basket in with a 56″ Flat Screen Plasma, all the better.
Birthdays? Great Match. Even if the one who is having a birthday is underage, doesn’t like beer (weirdo!) or is on some medication that counter-indicates alcohol consumption, a beer gift basket will still come in handy. Little Bobby might only have 5 candles on his cake, but his Daddy might love a Blue Beaver Beer at 5:00 in the afternoon. Depending on how many of the little weasels are at the party, there may be more than one adult there in need of a brew. You yourself might quaff several beer while enjoying the ‘company’ of other people’s toddlers. And what a great way to liven up Stanly’s 65th birthday; maybe he will tear things up a little!
Wedding gift openings could really use a beer basket to tune things up a little. After opening presents with towels, toasters, soap dishes, pillows, fancy eatin’ dishes, blenders and what have you, the groom needs to see something that is mainly for him. Let’s face it, he’s just sitting there suffering quietly through the bride’s gift opening. None of that stuff is for him, so imagine how much he will appreciate your thoughtful Blue Beaver Beer Gift Basket.
Funerals. A lot of family members really want a drink at times like these. Tact is needed to determine if a beer gift basket is appropriate for a particular individual or family. A grieving young widow who is left with no father for her young children is a bad match. But if you are going to the wake of Uncle Frank, who was known to hoist a few in his time with his pals, you might be able to get away with it. These bereavement beer baskets might be quite popular if they also contained some stronger spirits as well.
And lets not forget Christmas! Not getting along so well with the inlaws? Get them a gift packed with the goodness of beer and see if they warm to you a little. Hopefully they won’t decide you are completely beyond redemption (you wastrel!).
One of these baskets might contain more than one variety of beer or just a specific brand. They usually also contain delicacies such as gourmet crackers, beef jerky, salted peanuts or mixed gourmet nuts, samples of gourmet cheeses, dried rhinoceros pizzle and other unique snack items. Some baskets come in a beer bucket, a galvanized or stainless steel bucket big enough to hold twelve beer. These reusable containers might serve as a cooler for years after.
So next time you are stuck for a gift, order up a beer gift basket. Even if the intended receiver is unhappy with it, a re-gift will certainly work out. The very best of these of course contain Blue Beaver Beer, although if necessary you can just put any old beer in there to match the recipient’s tastes. Please think before hand to decide if the gift will be welcome. Your ninety year old Aunt Florence might like a warm pair of slippers instead. Or, she might surprise you and ask for another personalized gift basket next year!

Ohhhh, beer…. gotta love it. Nobody ever buys me beer… ever.
Hey RT, if it wasn’t for the shipping charges (and probably customs) I’d send you a six pack of my local favorite, Firestone beer. I’ll leave the Blue Beaver supplying up to the Redneck boys. - Steve, a loyal noble UV minion, and seller of minion made trade show display booths
Awesome idea! I’m going to have to see if I can find a reseller so I can publicize these for my customers.

hmmm, my second comment this morning didn’t post so I’m going to try this again…
hey guys,
Great idea on the beer gift baskets, but I forgot to ask, what the heck is dried rhinoceros pizzle??? It doesn’t sound very good to me…

My birthday is coming up in a couple of months and I’m going to be expecting one of those beer baskets from the bar! ;o)
How about I just send you an envelope full of beer, Tammy? Postage is a lot cheaper.
Hey guys .. good news, bad news.
GOOD NEWS: The Redneck & Weird Al is featured prominently in an upcoming Canucklehead post.
BAD NEWS: It’s actually a paid post, meaning I’m kinda whoring you guys out. Yes, Weird Al included - GAWD! I FEEL SO DIRTY!
Anyway, keep an eye out - CHEERS!
Hey Steve,
Your comments got dumped in Akismet for some reason. I found you between two very low class porn comments. Hopefully I managed to wash all the slime off your legitimate comment after being thrown in the trash like that!
Surely you have heard of Dried Rhinoceros Pizzle! If you want to find out exactly what it is, watch this video:

Hey Tim,
Thanks for getting my comment above of the porn and spam sandwich. I thought it might have got stuck there because I used the word “pizzle“. I watched your great video (the sound didn’t match your mouths in the second part, but it could have been my computer). Very funny. You guys have sophisticated tastes. I think I would need a lot of Blue Beaver to wash the pizzle down.

PS. Hope I don’t get sandwiched again… I feel so dirty.
I can tell you, I would be busting some heads if I were presented with a beer basket for a wedding anniversary. Now, a plasma TV? That I would appreciate.

Yeah, I don’t know if a recovered alcoholic would enjoy a beer gift basket, lol. Though really any gift basket of tasty beverages & accompanying snacks would be nice too - I love Starbucks

JD: I wouldn’t try giving a beer basket to my wife unless there was a hundred dollar bill wrapped around each bottle or a box with a ring in it under the beer. We already have a pretty big tv, but it was for me really.
Ray: Yeah, hopefully a gift giver can be sensitive to everyone’s special needs.
Would the beer basket make a good congratulations gift to anyone who just passed their driver’s test? Or how about a you’re fired/going away party? How about a good luck gift for a Navy test pilot about to take his exam?
The most genius thing about this is that it hasn’t been done! Hold that thought…I just googled it. There is such a thing. That’s freaking sweet!
This is still one of the funniest posts I’ve read in a while though. Thanks for the laugh guys.

“If you can wrap the beer basket in with a 56? Flat Screen Plasma, all the better.” Dont forget the Playstation 3 as well!
That will keep the majority of men happy for a long time!
Ha…what a neat idea. I’m sure there’s plenty of people who would love this simple gift! =D
I wish someone would buy me beer!
I wish someone would buy me a beer basket! haha

Bear baskets and a case of Becks!!
I always enjoy an ice cold beer, and it’s even better when I am watching a good movie or having a get together with friends. Nothing beats relaxing after a hard days work in a great atmosphere and a good beer. I actually have a favorite place I go to, a bar near to my apartment that has the best appetizers and is very cozy, very comfortable atmosphere. A friend of mine actually loved the bar stools there, she ended up buying some very silimar to the bar stools at the bar. Her place is very posh and modern looking so it added that much more to her little bar area. I might just buy her one of these baskets, itSany’s a great excuse to stop by and have a few drinks while I admire the new look to her place.
I think it’s a very creative idea. Definately i will give it a try.

Don’t you think it’s a funny idea.

The beer basket sounds great but not sure if i like the Dried Rhinoceros Pizzle. I had a few beer baskets sent to me before but most had some beers from around the world and half of the beer was just plain bad tasting. I never had one with bucket wish i did instead of wicker basket with cheese and crackers.
And this gift would work fine for me during Superbawl nights!
Neat gift idea. Gotta think a gift basket like this would be well received no matter what the occassion…even just for Firday nights.
The beer basket and 52 inch screen sounds good but i would settle for less. Maybe a 42 inch screen and 2 beer baskets would be the way to go. I wonder if they have a subscription that sends a basket every week now that would be a great gift for any man.
What a great idea of giving beer baskets as gifts. Makes perfect gift for a lot of occasions.

What guy does not love a beer basket. Maybe send it in a grill with some steaks and that would be a present.
This sound awesome!

Imagine laying on the couch, in a bad mood maybe. Then your GF (or whoever you want it to be) comes in with a basket of beer and some sexy underwear.

Awesome idea I have a number of friends who would be ecstatic to get a beer gift basket.
This is a wedding present I would love to get… quality effort.
wow, an amzing gift idea
Great Idea! I am going to do this for my husband’s birthday I think. He is a great fan of beer and I am sure he is going to love this.
A gift of beer is definitely one I don’t think about very often, but if you guys are going to give me one, make sure it includes a 6-pack of Erdinger.
Well - it’s Fathers Day today and I didn’t receive a beer basket! What’s all that about? I got a mug and a swear box instead.
i think the idea its very creative..
