checking a case of beer?

Recommended Posts

has anyone ever managed to pack 24 beer for travel as checked luggage? if you did, how exactly? [unsure] i'm travelling from canada to florida, so there is the added fun of customs.

I took a 12pk of beer from Arizona to California as carry on. They didn't have any problem with it.

Didn't want to check it. That would get stolen before a camera :D



Yeah, but now we're not allowed to have containers of liquid larger than 3oz all of which must be in a transparent one quart freezer bag, unless they were purchased from within a secure area of the airport (because terrorists are gung ho enough to die for their cause, but not dedicated enough to take menial jobs at airports to sneak stuff in).

Be sure to wrap it well if you check it though. The Arrogant Bastard in my luggage broken and left everything smelling like beer.

Don't bother taking good Canadian beer down to the Americans - they won't really appreciate it as they have little ability to recognize quality beer from all the years of drinking that stuff they make down there.

If your plan is to take it down so that you won't have to drink American beer - give up. Americans may not be able to tell the difference between good and bad beer but they are greedy bastards and will take your beer away from you and drink it themselves. They will guzzle it - not taking time to savour the quality or wonderful flavour of great Canadian beer. You are better off to have a number of shots of hard liquor to dull the taste buds and then you will able to drink American beer with no ill affects.

Just remember what the similarity of American beer and making love in a canoe is..... :D
