Hi, my name is Igor and I live in Croatia, Europe. My hoby is collecting
different tipes of beer that I can find in my city, but I want to go a
little bit further.
If somebody want to send me some beer that I don't have, I would gladly send
him some of the best beers in Croatia. It is colled OSIJECKO PIVO and it is
brewed in my town since 1697. Please contact me on my e-mail

THANKS

Geezus, I can't send beer via USPS, UPS, etc. to my next door neighbor, how the
hell am I supposed to send it to Croatia????
BTW, a friend of mine subscribed to one of those "Beer of the Month" clubs.
They got the beer via UPS, however it was labeled "SWIMMING POOL SUPPLIES."
I was told they did this in case of damage with a fluid leak. If this happened,
don't you think UPS would open the package and see that it was beer? Perhaps
this is why these services are now scarce?

Lots of people trade beer, even internationally. If packed properly, in
the kind of styrofoam mailers used by places like Liquid Solutions or
the various beer of the month clobs, that have individual chambers for
each bottle, the risk of breakage is minimal. If you've never traded for
beer from far-off places, you're really missing out, though the shipping
does get to be a bit costly.

Does anybody have any experience trading internationally from Canada? I was
under the impression that our customs laws specifically and without
exception prohibited the importing of alcoholic beverages.

Otherwise I'd love to get into this myself, whenever funds are favourable

Cheers, John

My understanding is that its illegal even within the US, even though
plenty people still do it. I "know someone" who has sent beer to Canada a
couple of times. One time it was even opened by the customs inspectors,
discovered to contain beer, repacked very poorly, and shipped on to its
intended recipient luckily without breakage.

It's not illegal to ship beer within the U.S. It is illegal to do so via the
U.S. Postal Service. Shipping companies like UPS and FedEx can do so at
their discretion.

Some individual states may bar shipment of alcoholic beverages, but there
are no federal regulations I'm aware of prohibiting the practice, as long as
you stay clear of the USPS.
