Our verdict on each
Bee d'Vine
Bee d'Vine is a US honey wine club and shop for drinkers who want mead on a schedule they set rather than a standard wine list. Plan pricing works out at $49 to $67 per bottle, which sits mid-table on our price per bottle ranking.
Beer52
Beer52 suits UK drinkers who want beer, wine and spirits from one club rather than a specialist wine room. It delivers in the United Kingdom, and the cadence can stretch, while the per bottle figure keeps the repeat cost of a subscription predictable for a household that drinks steadily.

Pros and cons
Bee d'Vine
Pros
- Delivery on monthly, every two months and quarterly lets members pick a rhythm instead of a fixed cadence.
- Free delivery on every order, since $0 is set at free with no spend minimum.
- Support covers phone as well as email, per email, phone and help centre, so a delivery problem can be raised directly.
Cons
- Bottle guarantee: no, so a broken bottle carries no stated replacement promise.
- Entry price of $35 sits above Bright Cellars at $13.
- Support runs on email, phone and help centre only, with no live chat among the listed channels.
Beer52
Pros
- Per bottle cost of £3.38 places Beer52 at 4 of 20, so the figure that repeats every cycle is one of the stronger ones among drinks clubs.
- Beer52 holds b corp, so the company is assessed on its wider impact and not only on the boxes it sends.
- Coffee sits alongside the drinks at £3.25 to £3.50 by weight in whole bean and ground, so one account covers a morning cup as well as a bottle.
Cons
- There is no bottle guarantee, so a cracked bottle or a short delivery is a message to support rather than an automatic replacement.
- Beer52 delivers in GB only, which puts the offer out of reach for readers in other countries.
- Coffee runs on whole bean and ground and stops there, so pod and instant drinkers get nothing from the coffee side.
Who each suits
Bee d'Vine
Who it suits
- Drinkers who want mead and honey wine rather than grape wine, and who like a club they can reschedule.
- US buyers who do not want a shipping charge added, since $0 is free delivery with no minimum.
- People who drink a case at a time rather than a bottle, given boxes of 4 bottles.
Who should look elsewhere
- Bright Cellars, for the lowest entry price, since $13 sits below $35.
- The Wine Society, for spirits and alcohol-free alongside wine, which its product types add to the wine club and wine shop mix here.
- Beer52, for a beer club first, since its product types start with beer rather than the wine club and wine shop range at Bee d'Vine.
Beer52
Who it suits
- UK drinkers who want beer, wine and spirits from one service rather than a wine only room, and who read per bottle cost first.
- Readers who want a club that answers on email, phone and help centre rather than funnelling everything through one written channel.
- Coffee drinkers who want whole bean or ground through the same account as their drinks, at £3.25 to £3.50 by weight.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone who wants a bottle guarantee: Beer52 does not offer one, so check Bright Cellars or Scout & Cellar, where bottle guarantee is a compared feature.
- Readers outside the UK, since Beer52 delivers in GB only.
- People who want an alcohol-free range in the same club: The Wine Society lists one, and beer club, wine club and spirits do not cover it.

Questions about each
Bee d'Vine
How many bottles come in a Club d'Vine box?+
A Club d'Vine box holds 4 bottles, so a subscription is ordered as a case rather than a single bottle. The bottles in the box are mead and honey wine from the same maker. A member who wants the occasional glass is better served by the shop, which sells bottles without a case commitment.
What does Bee d'Vine cost at entry and per bottle?+
The shop starts at $35, and the Club d'Vine subscription works out at $49 to $67 per bottle. The two numbers cover different things, a shop bottle against a club box, which is why the subscription is the costlier route per bottle. Both are quoted in US dollars for the US market.
Beer52
How much does it cost to join Beer52?+
Entry to Beer52 starts at £27, and the club prices each bottle at £3.38. Those are the two figures to weigh: the first covers getting in, the second comes back on every delivery. Readers who want to know what a stretch of repeat deliveries costs should work from the per bottle number rather than the entry figure.
Is there a delivery charge on a Beer52 order?+
Delivery is free from £50, so a full box can arrive without a shipping fee. An order that sits under that threshold picks up the charge instead, which is why the free delivery mark is worth checking against your basket size rather than assumed. Order on a regular cycle and the fee may never come into play.
