One way to dazzle your suds-loving loved one: Introduce them to the inner workings of their favorite craft brew line.

Many a Louisiana beer enthusiast has driven (or, more sensibly, been driven) to the taprooms of Parish Brewing in Broussard or NOLA Brewing in New Orleans to not only see where the malted magic happens but to taste varieties that will never go beyond the brewery doors. It’s a bit like the Wonka chocolate factory, though we assure you that the NOLA Blueberry IPA, exclusive to the onsite taproom, has never mutated anyone into a blueberry. parishbeer.com. nolabrewing.com.

Here are some other ideas:
