MakeHampers Christmas hampers for men hold craft beer, cheese, savoury snacks and a bottle to open on the day, chosen for dads, boyfriends and husbands. Not all of it is beer. There are alcohol-free options too, and free UK delivery throughout.
A Christmas hamper for men is a loose label, and one worth not taking too literally. What actually sells is beer and cheese, savoury snacks, a few sweet bits and a bottle for the day. People picture the whisky-and-cigars version in their heads. The real range is more everyday than that.
The Beer & Cheese Gift Box is the one people come back to, and the Bucket of Beers is the easy crowd-pleaser. Both are as much about the cheese and the snacks as the drink. The full Christmas range is here for everything else.
Here is what men's hampers really lean on. Craft beer, usually cans from smaller UK breweries. A wedge or two of cheese, with crackers to carry it. Savoury snacks and nuts to pick at. It is closer to a good pub fridge than a gift catalogue.
The stereotype is that it is all drink. It is not. The good ones balance the beer with enough food to make an evening of it.
The three buyer intents split cleanly.
A men's hamper has no fixed opening day, so it can run late in the month. The last slot is 1pm on 22 December. The beer boxes clear first, so bring that forward a few days if beer is the plan. Delivery detail sits on our delivery and returns page.
Mostly beer and cheese, savoury snacks, a few sweet things and a bottle for the day. Less whisky-and-cigars than people picture, and more of a good pub fridge. The Beer & Cheese Gift Box and the Bucket of Beers are the two that sell hardest.
Not every man wants beer. Around a quarter of the men's range has no alcohol at all, leaning on cheese, savoury snacks and sweet treats instead. The "No Alcohol" filter above the grid brings them up.
A traditional beer-and-cheese box tends to land best: a couple of craft cans, cheese and crackers, and savoury snacks to go with them. The things he would happily buy himself but never gets round to.
Up to 1pm on 22 December for delivery before Christmas. The beer boxes go first, so order a little earlier if that is what you are after.
For a partner, a beer and cheese box is the safe pick, or something built around a beer style or a food he is into. The larger boxes suit if you will be sharing it.
