Every holiday season, dads everywhere open up their gifts, smile politely, and thank the giver for yet another pair of socks, a package of underwear, or a grilling gadget they’ll probably use once or twice. Sure, dads are known for their simple tastes, but that doesn’t mean they’re thrilled to get the same things every year. Beneath that calm, grateful smile, even the most easygoing dad is probably hoping for something a little more…exciting.

The truth is, most dads don’t ask for much, but they have a few tried-and-true favorites: beer, sports, and drinking beer while watching sports. They don’t need fancy gadgets or trendy clothes—just a chance to unwind and enjoy the things they love with the people who matter most. So this year, instead of another pair of socks, why not surprise Dad with an experience he’ll genuinely look forward to?
