Sneaky Santa Beer Game

I know it’s late for a major change like this, but it would be a hoot for a Beer-Themed Sneaky Santa game.
Stop groaning…this is going to be fun!
Here are the ground rules:
1. Everyone playing the game brings a wrapped beer themed gift (under $10) so there is no indication about what is inside. (Lazy guy hint—gift bags are awesome) Place the gifts together under the tree or on a table.
2. The host writes a number on scrap pieces of paper for every gift and places them in a basket, bowl or hat.
3. Each person draws a number. Getting a higher number is actually better because you will have more opened gifts to choose from.
4. The person with #1 picks a gift to open from the pile. The person with #2 can choose to open another package or steal the gift from #1. If a gift is stolen, the person who had it then steals from someone else or picks another gift to open.
5. The game continues like this until everyone takes a turn opening or stealing a gift. The last person to go can steal from anyone in the game or open the remaining gift.
6. Once a gift is stolen three times, it is retired from the game.
Semper Fermentis!
Mike
