    Just saw this thread and quickly ordered! The earlier Beer Boxes that I ordered were excellent and I know this will be the same after seeing the beer list. Can't wait until the box is delivered!
    Cheers!

    I wish this shipped to Kansas but no. However, The Bruery ships to Kansas. The shipping for one bottle is equal to the price of the bottle, so it's a question of is it that good.

    From the FAQ: No. But we’ll set up a dedicated thread in The Bar for those who want to discuss and post pictures as they work their way through the box.

    Covered in the FAQ, but we pay for all of the beer + freight, then the beer needs to be handled and repacked into hundreds/thousands of boxes, and then shipped across the US. And the costs involved with everything have increased in recent years. And when it's all over, we hope to make a profit (100% of which is being donated this month).

    Has anyone eve tried shipping a package to UPS/Fedex facility to a neighboring state and pickup at the store? Halftime doesn't ship to my state but does deliver to the state 15 mins from me.

    From the Half Time FAQ: "No, we can only ship to residential and business addresses."

    But I know quite a few people have shipped to friends / family members. Maybe someone here could help too.

    "Sorry, no quotes are available for this order at this time" Is what I've been getting? For the last 3 days.

    Sounds like shipping might not be available to your area. I'd reach out to Half Time directly to confirm.

    I do this with Tavour. I have them send the box to a CVS in Danville, VA which is 45 minute drive for me.

    I think this is a stellar box. I am so looking forward to it! I am sending one to my brother as well. Sure it's a little costly. But hey, I think it's safe to assume that we ALL spend a lot on beer here. Plus, putting a package together like this IS costly. There are so many moving parts, and inventory, and repackaging, etc...

    Point is, if you are excited about the lineup, and it's going to be delivered to your door...why not jump on it?

    Hey Hank, just ran into this and I had to delete the last 4 digits on the zip code (so, just 5) to have it register as a shippable quote address. See if that helps? Cheers, Eric
