The love of your life has another love in their life. Their borderline fanatical courtship comes in the form of stocking your fridge with cans of Burley Oak J.R.E.A.M, leaving their side of the bed cold on a Saturday morning to go stand in line for three hours at an Other Half can release, and wearing a Jester King hoodie to your family dinners. We understand. So, for all those beer lovers who are your true love, here are 14 gifts to complete their Valentine’s Day (and you).
uKeg Pressurized Growler
uCan take your beer anywhere with the uKeg. If your steady sidekick wants to kick it on the beach, take you on a date to the park, or even Netflix and chill at home, the uKeg half-gallon growler will keep their prized beer cold and freshly carbonated for up to two weeks (perfect for Game of Thrones bingeing). We loved this growler so much we included it in some of our other gear lists. Whether on the go or at home, the 64oz toter’s durable double-wall vacuum insulated stainless steel bear hugs their cherished craft beer to chilly, fizzy perfection. Game on growler. Game on.
