My family and I decided to give my uncle a beer related product as his gift for his 60th birthday. I'd like to open some suggestions. I appreciate it a lot.

As both a Major League Baseball fan and a craft beer fan, I wish somebody would get me one of these: https://dugoutmugs.com/collections/skyline?utm_campaign=broad-audience

If you want specifics, it would probably help if you told us roughly where you're based (and him too), how much you want to spend, and what you mean by "into beer" (ie does he just drink a lot of lager, or is he interested in tracking down rare or unusual beers or different styles.

At a generic level you could go for:
- Crate of unusual beers from your local independent craft beer shop (the places section on here may help you find one).
- Beer book(s).
- Book him on a brewery tour.
- Beer club subscription
- Membership of this site!
- Brewer for the day experience.
- Vouchers for an online beer shop.
- Shares in a brewery.
- Homebrew kit.
- Beer tasting glasses.
- Beer festival tickets.
- Merchandise for his favourite brewery.

If you post some specifics as above then we can no doubt recommend something for your/his area.
