What’s a Brew Box? This is a Brew Box!
The brainchild of Charles & Brooke at Brewport Games, the Brew Box is a subscription-based service that ships a monthly package of MTG-related goodies to subscribers. Packs, sleeves, dice, tokens, etc. You can read more details about the Brew Box concept here.
At this point, the Brew Box is in a trial phase, but Charles and Brooke were kind enough to throw one of their prototypes my way, and I’ve decided to pay-it-forward to a lucky random winner.

I’d been wondering how long until there could be a subscription service for Magic. Seen people doing it with everything from Dog Treats, to makeup, to food. Such a fun idea!
This is an awesome idea! I think the most important thing to have when brewing is the frame of a deck, that way you can tweak the parts you want, but still have the core engine. Also, it should include episodes of the Brewport cast on CD, that way you can listen to it anywhere! -@BoltTheBird
This is an awesome deal that I am thinking about doing. I think that this idea is a first of it’s kind. I have some first ideas as well and am hoping to be able to start a game shop in my local area hopefully with in the next 5 years
@soudersch
The concept sounds rather sweet. Might be something worth having a go at if they ship to Australia.
This is a fantastic idea, great as a starter package for anybody new to the game and a great resource for anybody who its already settled. Everybody can always use duff and sleeves. Maybe add a pauper deck for beginners? Something to get them really started.

@Heavymetamidget btw
What a cool idea!!! I’ve never even thought of magic being connected to a subscription service (other than website content) but this is brilliant!
@r4wk5t4r
I love the whole concept of the brew box. It’s FANTASTIC!
Awesome idea! I saw, I think it was Heather, get 1 and open it a few weeks ago & it definitely grabbed my attention!
What a killer idea. ONE TIME DEALER
Everything about the box looks great, my only comment is the dice might be hard to use at a competitive event due to how they look! Other than that, the box looks great!
@pottsadapolous
The concept is pretty sweet. I am a fan of things like the Humble Bundle and Loot Crate. The only thing I am not sure about is longevity. The other two examples have many companies piling in where this inventory from a shop. I would try to get Monster Binders, Ultra Pro, Legions, and Fantasy Flights on board. Maybe even Inked Playmats and dice companies. That it allows them to expand their brands as well as be part of something cool. Just a thought, just a though.
I LOVE this idea and would participate if I had more disposable income.
I’m Msredmage on Twitter! I love Love LOVE this idea!! If I had more disposable income I would be totally in!
Those dice look awesome. I can’t wait until this subscription goes live!
Great concept, and sweet array of prizes! Fels like this concept takes over where WOTC Player Rewards left off… shows appreciation for MTG player base, while stimulating growth. I like!
What an excellent idea for a product
I think it is a great idea! I think the most important thing is to keep it fresh every month. I think exclusive content (articles, tokens, sleeves, etc.) would be cool.
Everything about this concept is amazing. Personalizing someone’s Magic experience through product is revolutionary, and let’s face it, those custom tokens are sweet.
I believe all Magic players could benefit hugely from something like this. It allows those who can’t regularly go out to get their MTG fix to get it delivered straight to their doors! I vastly approve of this! (Twitter: @Meowzalot_)
MTG subscription box? Basically the best idea ever.
Go the Loot Crate way, and add something like a cool card in one random person’s box every month. Everyone loves that “MAYBE ILL GET A FETCH LAND” lottery.
I think that this is a great idea! Especially with sleeves. Who doesn’t need new ones monthly? Also it’d be awesome to get some custom lifepads, or even rope in sign in blood to get those in the box!
This would have been great for me when I lived in a rural area and it was a 45 drive to the closest game store.
Seems like a fun idea. Can’t really think of anything else to add.
I will absolutely be doing this over my current loot crate subscription.
Also, @T1Forest is my twitter name for the contest!
Everything I love in one box! @jcdull
Thanks for doing this. Looking forward to the Brewbox going live soon. Definitely looking to subscribe.
The Brewbox looks like an exciting addition to the Magic scene in the area. I am looking forward to the rapidly approaching release date. Twitter : Eternally_Blue
Seems like a great idea
I like that they include basic accessories such as dice and sleeves. It was previously mentioned, but a life pad and a pen would be great too. Its those little things that you could use every month that would give the box staying power while things like boosters and tokens keep it fresh and exciting from month to month.
