It’s 2016, which means you’re one year closer to your goal of “getting your dad to start drinking beers that are better than Budweiser.”
It’s a gradual process.
First, you have your dad try one of your high BAC craft beers during Thanksgiving. He’ll likely say, “Hey, that’s pretty good.” The goal then is to work your way up to the point that each time you’re back home visiting, the fridge will always be stocked with good local craft beers. (Careful, if you play this too strongly, you’ll end up with a homebrew dad, which is not as bad as a Budweiser dad, but definitely not as good as a craft beer dad).
For those of you looking to convert your dad into drinking, you know, good beer, here are a few holiday beers that could win him over.
