You Are Reading This Because of Wealthy Affiliate

That's right! Wealthy Affiliate provided me with all of the tools and training I needed to get this post in front of my audience - a.k.a YOU!

You too can start your very own online business here that can make you money from anywhere in the world!!  

Before we begin however, I am conscious that there are a number of different areas or sub niches within this subject hence the quantity of affiliate programs to choose from may be just as large. So how have I picked my best 10? Well… I really just wanted to give you a good cross section of what is out there so I did some searching around and checked a few out and chose them by looking at:

  • What they offer
  • Commission rates
  • Payment terms
  • Cookie duration
  • Application processes
  • Affiliate/Marketing materials provided

Beer Affiliate Programs

Stats show that people will spend money on beer and its related paraphernalia online if it can make their lives easier so as long as you are meeting their needs and solving problems, then you are on the right track. And to give you a boost, let's have a look at 10 programs that I have found below:

1. Adventures in Home Brewing

Beer affiliate programs - Adventures in Home Brewing

Let's kick all of this off in the home brewing sub niche with Adventures in Home Brewing. This is a massive site covering everything to do with home brewing including:

  • All Grain brewing equipment
  • Kegging supplies
  • Brewing ingredients
  • Brewing books and recipe kits
  • Beer related gifts

Look, this list really doesn't do the site justice but there is just too much to list – in fact I am pretty sure that if there is something that you might need for home brewing and it is not in this site, then it probably doesn't exist.

Beer affiliate programs - Adventures in Home Brewing Stripe

This is a great site for affiliates as it allows you to cover and review numerous home brewing related products as well as pairing with different accessories and gift options. You could use this site to build a home brew affiliate business around on its own or expand to an all encompassing one with the included range of products to assist with the making of:

  • Wine
  • Spirits
  • Soda (soft drink)
  • Coffee
  • Cheese
  • Kombucha
  • Vinegar

2. BrewDemon.com

Beer affiliate programs - brewdemon

BrewDemon.com is a home brewing related beer site focusing mainly on those looking to get set up with their home operation by offering ‘easy-to-use' Home Brewing Starter Kits and Supplies. They offer a range of 2 and 6-gallon kits which include everything needed to brew that first batch of tasty beer.

Beer affiliate programs - brewdemon stripe

There may not be enough here to base an entire affiliate marketing business however if you are in the home brewing niche then this would make a great addition – especially if you wanted to target those looking to get started or brew on a budget. For ongoing sales options they offer a range of accessories, more advanced equipment, supplies (bottles, cleaners etc.) and a smaller range of gifts and the like as well. Oh, and they have cider brew kits too…

3. BrooklynBrewShop.com

Beer affiliate programs - Brooklyn Brewshop.com

As the name suggests, BrooklynBrewShop.com is another home brew based site offering “easy-to-use Beer Making Kits to get even the most space-strapped of apartment dwellers making their own beer”. They promote the use of natural and clean ingredients that are the “same great ingredients as the world’s best craft brewer”. Their beer range includes:

  • Beer making kits
  • Beer making mixes – Jalapeno beer anyone?
  • Beer related gifts and merchandise
  • Accessories and brewing equipment upgrades
Beer affiliate programs - Brooklyn Brewshop stripe

As with the previous site, there is maybe not enough to sustain an affiliate marketing business on its own if you were only focused on the beer niche however again it would make a great addition to any site aimed at those getting started in the game. However, with its additional range of Kombucha, Cider, Wine and Cheese making kits and accessories, it could certainly work on its own if your site was looking at home brewing as a general, non beverage specific product range instead.

Commission Rate: 20%

Payment Terms: Monthly

Cookie Duration: 60

Application required?: Yes, the BrooklynBrewShop.com affiliate program is managed by Share-A-Sale. You will be required to apply for an account then for the BrooklynBrewShop.com affiliate program. You will need to enter personal and website information to apply.

4. Craft Beer Club

Beer affiliate programs - Craft Beer Club Home

Now let's head into the world pre-brewed beers with Craft Beer Club. The Craft Beer Club (the original one at that) is a subscription based site that offers a monthly booty of:

  • 12 craft beers brewed by small-production, independent, artisan, craft brewers using traditional brewing ingredients
  • 3 Bonus gifts each month such as openers, coolers, recipe books etc.

Beer affiliate programs - Craft Beer Club Stripe

This site would probably not support an affiliate business on its own however would make a great addition if you are dealing with those looking to collect and try craft beers or as a great side hustle for just about anything else to do with beer, entertainment or gifts.

5. Beer Cartel

Beer affiliate programs - Beer Cartel Home

Now we head into the land down under with Beer Cartel. Beer cartel offers the “best craft beer from Australia and overseas delivering to thirsty drinkers Australia-wide”. And whilst I can personally account for the awesomeness of this one, from an affiliate point of view there is great opportunity to offer a massive range of craft beers in single, group or mixed packages and trial box options.

Beer affiliate programs - Beer Cartel Stripe

There is probably not enough on this site to base an entire affiliate marketing site around but is an absolute must if you are dealing with craft beer in any fashion, especially those hard to get or specialty brews. Further cross selling opportunities also exist with a range of:

  • Glassware
  • Beer gift baskets
  • Beer Subscription club

8. Bottle Keeper

Beer affiliate programs - Bottlekeeper

And in keeping with our gift related sites we now turn to Bottle Keeper. Because “life is too short to drink warm beer”, BottleKeeper offer what I would personally describe as a small range of beer coolers on steroids. They are essentially aluminium water bottles that have been hollowed out to allow a cold beer bottle (stubbie) or can (tinnie) to be inserted. Essentially you then have as they say, cold beer and warm hands…

Beer affiliate programs - Bottlekeeper stripe

Again, this site is probably not one that you would build an entire affiliate marketing business around although it would make a great gift addition to any beer, camping, fishing, hunting or just about anything else you can think of in this genre. I can see the post now – “10 ways to keep that beer cold whilst …“. There are also some corporate options with custom engraving as well as a decent range of merchandise as well (shirts, decals etc.). Is it sad that I am also thinking of places that I could use the bottle to sneak beer into?…

Application required?: Yes – BottleKeeper's affiliate program is managed by Share-A-Sale. You will be required to apply for an account and then for the BottleKeeper affiliate program. You will need to enter personal and website information to apply.

9. Brewer Shirts

Beer affiliate programs - Brewmaster home

Now let's take a look into the popular world of beer fashion with BrewerShirts. The site began with as a means to “create apparel that celebrated the art of brewing and the love of fine beer” with ranges in the following categories:

  • Craft Beer Girl Gang
  • Beer & Body
  • Mens
  • Womens
  • Long Sleeves
Beer affiliate programs - Brewershirts stripe

This site would work best as an add on to any craft beer, home brewing, wine, or t-shirt culture niche especially as a great gift idea. There is also some extra stuff available on the site allowing for good cross selling or expansion opportunities including:

  • Popsockets
  • Glassware
  • Bar Towels
  • Coolers and totes

And finally, “Beer Pong never looked so awesome” with a site called Infinity Beer Pong. This site turns the game of beer pong into an extravaganza with customisable, regulation size glowing beer pong tables.

Beer affiliate programs - Infinity Beer Pong stripe

It would be hard to build an affiliate site around this one however it would make a fantastic addition to just about any beer, gift, corporate, college or sporting niche (or any other that you think may fit).

How to find your own affiliate programs

As stated earlier, by outlining the sites above I have really just tried to give you a good cross section of the types of programs that are out there by listing the really good ones in each ‘category'. That does not mean that you cannot find affiliate programs that better suit what it is that you are trying to do within this space especially as I could never even begin to cover every beer related requirement or sub niche in the one post. Luckily for us, there is a simple way to find these programs online.

All you need to do is enter “affiliate: niche type” into your search engine (substituting ‘niche type‘ for whatever product it is that you are choosing to sell).

Beer affiliate programs - Affiliate options

There are beer related affiliate programs for everything else that we have listed at the top of this page as well – you will just need to have a look around until you find one or two that suit your site. Once you have completed your searches, you can look through and find programs that:

  • Relate to your niche/problems that you are solving.
  • Have quality products – your brand can be severely damaged if you promote poor quality products.
  • Have solid payment and customer service arrangement.
  • Pay decent commissions.
  • Have good testimonials covering commission payouts and quality of product.

In most cases, you will need to apply for the program before you are allowed to promote their products – don’t take this step lightly or you will be rejected. Affiliate programs will generally want to know:

  • Your website name.
  • Traffic levels.
  • Why you want to join – (“so I can make money by selling your beer glasses” is unfortunately not generally a good enough answer).
  • How you plan to promote their products.

Conclusion

So… There are 10 of the best beer affiliate programs to brew this year. I hope it has been helpful for you as you commence your own beer based affiliate marketing business and as usual, please do not hesitate to comment below if you have any questions, need some advice or have any experiences to share. Oh, and especially comment if you have any experience with these, or any other programs as well.

Until next time

Have fun

Introducing Wealthy Affiliate, My #1 Recommendation for Setting Up Your Own Online Business

wealthy affiliate new home page

When I started, I knew I wanted to work online, but had absolutely no idea where to begin! You see I had watched friends of mine run a sales party to sell essential oils and someone asked if they could just sell them online?

Then, as I sat on the bus heading into my office job, I started to wonder if I could do just that, sell essential oils online.

Anything to stop having to catch this bus to and from work every day right!

The trouble was, as I mentioned above, I had no idea how to even start.

So of course I started to look around online and found all these courses! They all promised me riches then took my money but left me with no riches!

Then I stumbled across the program that didn’t promise me riches, but told me it could help me get started even with no experience!

So I did that, joined Wealthy Affiliate that was it, and the rest as they say, is history!

But it doesn’t come without work!

That is the key here! I began on their starter membership and did the training! I then joined as a member and did some more training!

Each night after work, I would do a little more, then a little more.

And to cut a long story short, after 10 months I realized I didn’t really like writing about essential oils, so I sold the site for about $2000. But I had learned so much that I started another – about fishing and camping!

Then, after 18 months (by which time it had earned me close to $10k), I was offered $17k for the site, so I sold it too.

Now, through my travel blog, I’ve been able to fund my passion for travel and explore different places around the world.

In the past few months, I’ve been fortunate enough to travel to some amazing destinations, including Bali, Los Angeles, Dallas, Vancouver and Las Vegas.

The success of my travel blog has allowed me to fully fund my travels and explore new destinations with my family.
