Beer Shipping Question

[GrumpySquirrel]

So my buddy and I are sending a beer each for the Sam Adams longshot, and I was wondering I I could ship them together in 1 box or if I should ship them separately.

Any thoughts?

Check the FAQ on their site. They have a lot of info.

As long as you properly and securely package them it really doesn't matter

Thanks! Their FAQ doesn't go into detail about two different beers shipping in one container. Ill try it and see how it goes.

Good Luck! What are you sending? I'm thinking about submitting my coconut ale.

I wrap them in bubble wrap,then inside a blue plastic bag. Then more buble wrap & another bag inside of a well padded box. Usually padded with more bubble wrap. I sent 4 bottles to my daughter out in socal double boxed,tripple bagged,triple padded. Those boxes they ship cell phones in sure come in handy.

I'm submitting a mocha stout (cacao nibs and Coffee) and my buddy is submitting a dubbel. Thanks!

They have to be plain 12oz glass bottles too. No logos,graphics,etc can be cast into the glass either.

Anyone else find it ironic that you can't use Sam Adams bottles in their competition?

Mocha Stout sounds delicious.

Also, best way to ship beer is prepaid. No questions asked other than "Prepaid?"

Yeah,you'd think they'd know if it was their beer or not,even though it's in their bottles.

May be you are right, but my 2 earlier parties were spoiled due to prepaid beer Shipping plans. I prefer self shipping.
