Best beer clubs of 2023
The Craft Beer Club is arguably the most popular beer subscription box out there for the craft beer enthusiast and for good reason. This club sends out monthly shipments of new and interesting craft beers from around the country. Many of the new beers and craft brews have limited distribution, meaning a subscription to CBC might be your only shot of tasting those specialty offerings. It also puts a premium on fresh beer, with many of its roster of breweries making a fresh batch just before boxes go out.
Some of the beer subscription boxes on this list don’t leave much of the beer selection up to you, but not so with Beer Drop. This beer delivery box startup offers different plans, but with all of them, you can select your favorite type of beer and specific beer styles that go into your monthly craft beer subscription box shipments. That includes IPAs, fruit-forward beers, Belgian beer and plenty of other varieties.
If you’re looking for outside-the-box brewing, Brewvana is the beer club you’ll want to gain membership to. Brewvana features interesting beers from a single beer-brewing region like Des Moines, Iowa.
If hops make you happy, this is the monthly club for you (or another hoppy beer lover you’d like to treat). The HopHeads Beer Club sends three different hops-centric beers — four of each — every month so you can get your fill of this beer style.
The Rare Beer Club is the most selective of them all, featuring only two 750ml bottles of beer a month. It sends two separate styles of craft beer per month and no two months will see the same bottle picks at your door (unless you request or reorder). Don’t be discouraged by the limited choices; it’s quality you’re here for, and these beers are carefully chosen.
What should you expect from a beer subscription?
Each beer club operates differently, with some specializing in a hyperlocal showcase of a single region’s beer every month, while others pluck their favorite brews from various locales to give you a cross-section of the best upstart beer-makers in 2023. Several clubs curate a monthly send of interesting or seasonal beers from small-batch breweries. Others focus on a particular style of beer to highlight in that month’s collection. Most beer clubs send plenty of information on the beer and brewery and many also send bits of free swag from the breweries with each shipment, including stickers, coasters, pins and sometimes even mugs or glasses. It’s a huge bonus for any beer gear collector.
About food and drink subscriptions
Food and drink subscriptions are great for people clamoring to sample small batch or hard-to-find wine, coffee, seafood, hot sauces, snacks, butcher cuts and other craft consumables. Beer has as fervent a following as any, which explains the dozens of beer subscriptions you have to choose from. Whether you’re a regular imbiber yourself or want to buy a gift for a craft beer lover, look no further than an independent beer club or subscription service.
