Niiiiiiice!

Shirt: L or XL. Amerifat.
Music: Send me your stuff. LPs are also welcome.
I clearly like fuzz. I need to stop buying delays. I have 5 of them. I don't know why.

If you're from a different part of the country/world than I am - I'd love to try some of your beer. I THINK it's kosher to send beer.

It's not, for the most part, particularly in Michigan. But you somebody decides to send you some it should be packaged separately and safely. Lots of horror stories of postal carriers figuring out the contents and just trashing the package.

[D.o.S.]

You can't legally send beer in the mail in the US.

[UglyCasanova]

Having seen how parcels are handled (dropped from up to 10ft onto concrete) I'd advice people to bubblewrap and make sure that their glass bottles are separated from pedals etc with zip-bags. I'm not going to risk it. Sorry, stalkee!

[Schlatte]

It's illegal to send beer in the US?
I've sent schnaps to my SS-victim in the US two years ago and did not have any problems

YOU CAN'T SEND BEER??? I THOUGHT THIS WAS 'MURICA!??

[UglyCasanova]

Alcohol — Alcoholic beverages (beer, wine, or liquor) are restricted and can’t go in the mail. If you’re reusing a box displaying alcohol brands, all logos and labels need to be completely removed.

It's only a problem if you get caught, as in they won't deliver the parcel. But it probably won't lead to any legal actions.

precisely that.

[D.o.S.]

It has to do with the laws surrounding beer distribution, many of which are archaic and fairly close to a monopoly.

But, long story short, you can't legally mail beer. You can definitely get away with it, though. I know a lot of beer traders just declare it as "homemade hot sauce" and the like.

[Wes Mantooth]

Yeah I feel like someone has mailed beer for this before right?

[Derelict78]

It has been done and it will happen again

[odontophobia]

It has even done and it will happen again

Yeah, i'm sure it'll be done and that's no big deal. The big thing is just that if the post finds out it's alcohol they'll just trash the package. If a bottle breaks and it leaks they'll trash the package. It's pretty crazy.

[morange]

I've ordered vodka for someone through the mail before, and it worked. It wasn't me sending it, though, it was direct from the online seller to the person I was buying it for. I think that may be legal.

[UglyCasanova]

If you live in and want to ship to someone in a state where it is legal, you can get your local certified beer/wine/liquor supplier to send it. That's what I gathered from my little Google quest.

[Disarm D'arcy]

Yep, found the same thing. So no amazing local sparkling wine for teh partayz for my satanee. And I had already bought a bottle!
