Why Beer Subscriptions Are a Great Gift Idea

Beer Club of the Month

There are a lot of beer subscriptions to choose from, but the best ones allow you to decide which brews you want to get. Some subscriptions focus on specific beer types while others are general. They can be a great way for you to discover new brews.

The Duration Beer Club for example sends out 12 cans per month of its core beers or collaborations. It’s a great way to expand your ale-drinking skills, and each can also features art from a local artist. Plus, each month they donate to non-profits.

The City Brew Tours Beer Club is another great option for beer lovers. They take you on a virtual road trip by highlighting cities’ brew options and offering virtual tastings of the selections. If you do not want to commit for a long time, there are other beer subscriptions which allow you to cancel or change your order.

These clubs are ideal for beer connoisseurs and collectors of rare, limited-release beers. You can refine your palate, learn about different styles and avoid those you don’t like. You can also save time and money by not having to search for these bottles yourself.

Each month, you’ll receive two 750ml bottles (similar to wine bottles), each from a different brewery. The beers are selected by a team of beer experts and often include brewery exclusives that you can’t find anywhere else.

Unlike other subscriptions you can customize the membership by choosing a number of bottles each month or selecting a particular brew. You can cancel or pause the subscription at any time. The company behind this club has stellar customer service, and they get a lot of positive feedback from their subscribers. They also keep their prices low. They donate a portion of the proceeds to local charities.

Craft Beer Club

For beer lovers, these clubs provide a fun and convenient way to sample new beers without having to go to a brewery or even leave your home. They also support local charities and businesses. For example, one club in NYC sells a mango-lassi flavored beer that benefits the non-profit SapnaNYC that helps low-income South Asian women.

Some of these subscriptions come with additional gifts such as a subscription to a magazine devoted to craft beer, a heavy-duty opener and custom koozies. They also offer a flexible, no-commitment membership with monthly, bi-monthly, quarterly, or annual shipments. Most allow you to cancel or pause delivery and most ship for free within the US.

The best beer subscribtions let you try a wide variety of styles. From traditional ales to hoppy beers and sour beers to lagers, dark beers and lagers. They also come with tasting notes, brewery information, and recommendations for food pairings. These can be expensive but are worth it to discover more styles of ale.
