Of course, you should hold a beer tasting only if the birthday celebrant loves to drink beer.

The point of throwing a beer tasting party is to be able to taste unique beers, preferably from different parts of the world. Think rare imported beers and craft beers , those brewed by independent microbreweries. Leave the staple beers to your regular drinking nights.

You can turn it into a potluck party where everyone invited is required to bring a rare brew. If you go this route, you might want to assign everyone a category, such as lager, ale, stout, etc.) to avoid having everyone bring the same type of brew.

This article has some great tips on how to host a beer tasting bash.

What’s a birthday without food? Get food that goes well with beer such as sausages, pretzels, nuts, chips, etc.

Inspired by Charm has great food ideas, as well as easy decorating tips.

Keep in mind though that the objective of a beer tasting party is to try different kinds of beer and not to get drunk. After all, the old man may not be able to handle anymore hangovers.

You may not be able to bring everyone to Las Vegas for a birthday celebration but you can definitely bring the Vegas experience to them by holding a casino themed party.

Make sure to award the guests who has the most number of chips at the end of the party.

This is the time that you should go all out. Instead of one, you should set up several grilling stations where guests can feast on different kinds of BBQ treats.

If you don’t want to do the grilling yourself then you can have the party catered.

If you’re planning to invite more guests than what your backyard can handle, then you can hold the party in nearby park.
