Why Beer Subscriptions Are a Great Gift Idea
Consider a beer subscription if you are a beer enthusiast or want to give an exciting and unique gift. These boxes bring new and exciting brews straight to your door.
Some offer seasonal brews, such as pumpkin-inspired beers around Halloween and traditional strong Christmas ale. Many also support local communities and charities.

Beer Club of the month
There are many beer subscriptions available, but the best ones let you choose which brews to receive. Some are focused on specific beer types, while others are general and can be a good way 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, they donate to a non profit each month.
City Brew Tours Beer Club can be a great option for beer enthusiasts. They take you to a virtual roadtrip by highlighting brews from different cities and offering virtual tastings. 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.
Rare Beer Club
These clubs are great for collectors or connoisseurs of limited-release, rare beer. You’ll be able to refine your palate and educate yourself while avoiding styles that you don’t appreciate. You can also save time and money by not having to search for these bottles yourself.
You’ll get two 750 ml bottles of beer (similar to wine bottles) each month from two different breweries. 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 also cancel or pause your subscription whenever you want. The company behind the club offers excellent customer service and receives a lot positive feedback from its subscribers. They’re also very good at keeping the prices of their boxes low. They donate a portion of the proceeds to local charities.
Craft Beer Club
For beer lovers, these clubs offer a convenient and fun way to sample new brews without having to leave home or visit a brewery. They also help support local businesses and charities. 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. These subscriptions offer a flexible no-commitment option with monthly, quarterly, or yearly shipments. Most companies make it easy to pause or cancel your delivery. They also ship free within the US.
The best beer subscriptions let you sample a wide range of styles, from traditional ales to hoppy and sours to lagers and dark beers. 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.
