Throw Dad a Beer Tasting Party for Father's Day

Go all out for Father's Day by planning Dad a party full of his favorite things. Give it a customized look with a DIY paper banner and food labels, twine-covered bottles and specialty beers for guests to try. Pub-inspired food and desserts are perfect for grab-and-go snacking in between tastings.

Set up a tasting station and label the different types of beer with simple plaid tags. To attach the tags, tie them around the beer bottlenecks with twine for a rustic look. Make a game of it by turning over the tags and having guests guess which type of beer they're tasting.

Galvanized buckets are great for serving chips, ice or drinks. Tie plaid fabric or burlap around the center to incorporate the rustic theme.

Give the party a pub atmosphere with typical menu items Dad loves eating at his favorite bars such as pub-style pretzels and beer cheese.

Label food containers using online printables from Paper & Cake, or make your own by gluing plaid-patterned scrapbook paper to plain containers and stamping letters on them. Customize the containers by adding "Dad," your dad's name or "Happy Father's Day" on them.

To make a budget-friendly garland, tear up your dad's old plaid shirts and tie them in bows on a long piece of twine. Wrap it around the beer tasting table or hang it over a doorway.

A party isn't complete without a few competitive games. Designate specific areas indoors or out for your dad's favorite drinking games, and make sure to have signs so people know where to play.

Label and decorate everything, including the beer bucket, so the party has a cohesive look. Wrap buckets, tables, chairs and other items with burlap to continue the rustic theme.

Combine two delicious treats — beer and cupcakes — into one. The main ingredient in these cupcakes is Blue Moon beer, which adds an orange-amber flavor to the dessert. Top it with an orange slice for an extra fruity twist and printable "Happy Father's Day" cupcake toppers.
