A reader said that she loved the looks of the Super Bowl Beer Gift Basket but that she and her friends preferred Cosmopolitans to beer and she was wondering if I knew of any Super Bowl Gift Baskets that did not include beer, or even better, one that included Cosmo mix. Well first of all, she is obviously a Cardinals fan because all Steeler fans drink beer, that is a known fact! Secondly, I couldn’t find a Cosmo gift basket, but I did find an awesome Super Bowl Gift Basket that doesn’t include beer!

Here is a great review from someone who has purchased the basket:

This delightful selection of quality chocolate goodies made a big impact on Christmas day and provided the whole family (7) with a variety of irresistible temptations which proved far too difficult to exercise any kind of self-control over. It took less than two days for everything to be inspected, anticipated, eaten and discussed and now it appears that this is a requirement for all occasions and celebrations. Highly recommended for those without a nervous disposition concerning their wastelines but who love excellent chocolate treats.

Be a HERO to your loved one and order him or her the Chocolate Treasures Gourmet Food Gift Basket for Valentine’s Day. You won’t regret it!

Valentine’s Day Gift Basket – Chocolate Treasures

Sometimes a regular beer gift basket just won’t do. Sometimes you need to go hog-wild. And that sometimes is coming up soon! Whether you watch the Super Bowl for the football game or the Super Bowl Commercials, you know it is always a party. And what better to bring to the party than a magnificent Super Bowl Gift Basket?

The Extreme Tailgating Super Bowl Gift Basket is the only Super Bowl Gift Basket extreme enough to match the big game. This Super Bowl Gift Basket is packed with gourmet snacks and micro-brew beers that will hit you like an all-pro linebacker! What better way to celebrate the Super Bowl than with a gourmet super bowl basket filled with gourmet snacks like Butcher Wrapped Summer Sausage, Gourmet Tortilla chips, a hot pepper round, and MUCH more? And did we mention the beer? Mmm, Beer. Enjoy and share the finest microbrews from around the country, like Smuttynose Old Brown Dog, Magic Hat #9, and Harpoon Munich Dark. Be your party’s MVP with a Super Bowl Gift Basket that will satisfy everyone from Joe Namath to Refrigerator Perry!

There is tons of great snacks in this gift basket but I want to highlight the star of the show, the beer. Here is more information about the beer in this Super Bowl Gift Basket (quantities in parenthesis):

• (2) Sierra Nevada Pale Ale – 12 oz. – Elaine Louie, of Premier Beer – A Guide to America’s Best Bottled Microbrews calls it, “a flawless beer that opens with bright, perky high notes of maltiness and orange blossom and segues into a delectable hoppiness.” This beer is so incredible that it makes us forget how jealous we are of Elaine for making a career of drinking great beer.
• (2) Magic Hat #9 – 12 oz. – This is one of the most popular micro brews in America. Magic Hat says that #9 is a “beer cloaked in secrecy.” Let’s hope Bill Belichick doesn’t find out!
• (2) Sam Adams Seasonal – 12 oz.- Sam Adams, the original microbrew. Need we say more?
• (2) Harpoon Munich Dark – 12 oz.- Harpoon founders Rich & Dan wanted to bring “great beer and a sense of community to New England.” Sounds like a good idea to us. With Harpoon Munich Dark in your Super Bowl Gift Basket , you’re sure to be bringing great beer to the party. Building a sense of community is up to you, but great beer is always a step in the right direction!
• (2) Long Trail Seasonal Ale – 12 oz .- It’s been a long season, we know. Kick back and relax with one of Vermont’s finest microbrews.
• (2) Smuttynose – Old Brown Dog 12 oz. – Old Brown Dog has been cited as a classic example of the “American Brown Ale” style of beer. A perfect complement to all of the other classic ingredients in our Super Bowl Gift Basket!
