Welcome to midsummer, a time for barbecues, garden parties and strawberries and cream. Now that the rain has disappeared and the days stretch on, we can spend more of our time outside. Whether it’s in the garden, park or at the beach, the best way to relax is with something cold in hand. The ideal summer accessory is then, of course, a beer crate. Here are 5 reasons why you should buy a beer crate this summer. 

Keep It Cool

There’s nothing worse than reaching for a cold beer on a hot day, only to discover that it’s lukewarm. The remedy? Get yourself a wooden beer crate and fill it to the brim with ice. Stack it with your stash of drinks and worry no more about keeping your drinks cool!

Give A Gift

Custom beer crates, like the ones here at Plantabox, make perfect gifts for those with summer birthdays. Our beer crates are available to personalise in a number of colours, and you can even have a special message printed onto the wood. Give a beer crate gift today!

Hearty Hampers

You can fill your crate with beer, but why stop there? Why not save a few spaces for crisps, cheeses and delicious fresh bread? Perfect for picnics and gifts! Buy one of our large crates and a divider to make a custom beer crate with 12 spaces. Crate dividers can be personalised to match existing crates. Even better, add a bottle opener!

Carry On Caddy

We don’t just do open beer crates, you know! Beer caddies are perfect for moving drinks from A to B, whether that’s from the car to the perfect picnic spot, or between friends around the barbecue. Our beer crates can hold 4 or 8 bottles and are available to customise with colours and messages. 

Time to Celebrate

Have you heard? Wimbledon is back and football's coming home! Celebrate Andy Murray’s winning ace or Harry Kane’s hat-trick with a cold beer from the crate at your side. Your new best friend is here, and it’s a Plantabox beer crate!
