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.

One club in NYC sells beer with mango-lassi flavors to benefit SapnaNYC, a non-profit that helps South Asian women who are low-income.
Some of these beer subscriptions include additional gifts, such as a year’s subscription to a craft magazine, a heavy duty bottle opener, or custom koozies. They also offer a flexible, no-commitment membership with monthly, bi-monthly, quarterly, or annual shipments. Most companies make it easy to pause or cancel your delivery. They also ship free within the US.
