I like beers, I like different beers. Problem is I live in the west of a small backwater island known as Ireland or the republic of gunniess/budweiser/miller as it seems. Been looking for places I can order beer online and have it delivered to be for reasonable amount.

I have used drinkstore.ie to give me first taste of bunch of belgiums and get the glass ware. It has limited selection but does have a nice River Horse Tripel Horse local offlicence never heard of.

Then I found this place

Thought it was the jackpot with 800 beers in stock, and glassware to go with them. Problem I got was the postage. €16.45 for 1 kg (minimium) when ordering glass ware or €36.18 for 5kg minimium in beers (7x330), which I found nuts. no way am I paying €98.12 postage for a selection box.

Now reason posted here is do you have a online shop to order the stuff the useless offlicence don't sell. or can get cheaper online?

It's my understanding that like cigarettes, you can't buy alcoholic beverages on-line from outside Ireland.

Try the drinkstore.ie, fantastic selection of Irish and World beers and they are constantly getting in new brews.

Try beersofeurope

Surely that should be outside the EU? Otherwise it would infringe upon free trade and all that.

In advance of their departure too, if I recall the Revenue guidelines correctly.

That said, I'm sure people here have ordered from abroad online and not got caught.

But smuggling is bad, m'kay?
