Today, beer art is more permanent and still spectacular. Take, for instance, artist <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cmasseyart.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Christina Massey<\/a>, the sculptor who turns her favorite hazy IPA cans into vivid bursts of shape and color. Many of the cans she uses are sourced from her home base in NYC from craft brewers like Other Half and Sixpoint.<\/p>\n<h3><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-106766\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.craftbeer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/20191125130132\/Rush-Creek-Reserve-Cheese_850x339.jpg\" alt=\"Rush Creek Reserve Cheese Wheel\" width=\"850\" height=\"339\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.craftbeer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/20191125130132\/Rush-Creek-Reserve-Cheese_850x339.jpg 850w, https:\/\/cdn.craftbeer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/20191125130132\/Rush-Creek-Reserve-Cheese_850x339-768x306.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/>Rush Creek Reserve Cheese | $35 per wheel<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>We love whale beers, but what about whale cheeses? I\u2019d call this one a game-changer cheese. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uplandscheese.com\/product\/rush-creek-reserve\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Rush Creek Reserve<\/a> lives up to the hype. This limited cheese from Upland Cheese is produced only in the fall, as the diet of Rush Creek\u2019s cows begins to change from summer pasture to the winter\u2019s dry hay. This rich milk is perfect for a cheese like Rush Creek Reserve. The cheese is soft and so decadent it\u2019s often referred to as savory custard. Each Rush Creek Reserve is wrapped in spruce bark which gives shape to the cheese and imparts a subtle woodsy flavor.<\/p>\n<p>I can personally vouch that this cheese is bonkers when you pair it with beer. John Mallett of Bell\u2019s Brewery once served it with Bell\u2019s Cherry Stout at an event. He wrapped each piece of cheese in foil and placed it in the oven until it was warm and gooey. At $35 a wheel, this is the least expensive beer gift on the list, but you\u2019ll want to by at least three to share.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(More: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.craftbeer.com\/craft-beer-muses\/heroes-of-the-brewhouse-heres-what-brewery-workers-actually-do\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Heroes of the Brewhouse: Here\u2019s What Brewery Workers Actually Do<\/a>)<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Beer Travel Gift Ideas<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-106769\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.craftbeer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/20191125132802\/BierGardeValise_850x339.jpg\" alt=\"Bier Garde Valise\" width=\"850\" height=\"339\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.craftbeer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/20191125132802\/BierGardeValise_850x339.jpg 850w, https:\/\/cdn.craftbeer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/20191125132802\/BierGardeValise_850x339-768x306.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/>BierGardeValise\u2122 | $349<\/h3>\n<p>What do you give the beer lover who loves to go on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.craftbeer.com\/tag\/beer-travel\">beercations<\/a>?
