Easy Homebrewing Countertop Appliance

PicoBrew Pico C

Homebrewing is the pinnacle of beer geekery. Once you've become a connoisseur of beer, the next step is often brewing your own, because the lure of always-fresh beer is strong. Many beer lovers dream of homebrewing, of tweaking recipes until they make the magical elixir that tastes perfect to them, but the reality of homebrewing is that it's quite complicated and time-consuming. If there's anything we're all short of these days, it's time.

IPA Specialty Glasses

Spiegelau Beer Classics IPA Glass

Several years ago, as IPA was taking off, brewmasters at craft breweries around the country noticed there wasn't quite the right glassware available to really take advantage of all their prized IPAs had to offer. So the head brewers Dogfish Head and Sierra Nevada teamed up with world-renowned glassmaker Spiegelau to create the perfect IPA glass.

What makes it so great? The bulb part of the glass looks a lot like a wine glass, and that's because it serves the same purpose, to concentrate the aromatics (coming from the hops in this case) and preserve a frothy head. These glasses are also so great they've been copied by other designers who put their own spin on them.

We chose this two-pack because we wanted to provide a truly affordable gift option for IPA-lovers, but it also comes in a 4-pack for $28.99.
