Just those two things alone: freedom to hit the road & moving things are more massive than you even realize.
I have a small car, a Civic. I routinely buy beers from all over. Vast majority cannot be sold & shipped. And I don’t believe for a minute the laws would change for me to shop online as easily as other stuff. And, that also includes the freedom of the road trip.

Just a heads up, The USPS will not ship liquids, but UPS and FedEx will if you pack them in plenty of bubble wrap.

And?
That doesn’t help me at all. I buy beer direct from micro breweries that I visit in my “Freedom” road trips.

Effing Pennsylvania is a state to avoid then. I don’t know whether they’ve changed anything but I did that a few years back and they said they weren’t allowed to sell me more than two sixpacks. While I don’t actually drink much,beer stores well for weeks to months and I had found a brewery I liked but haven’t been to since

My GF and I made it into 21 breweries in 2.5 days in the Pittsburgh area.
Dancing Gnome, and 11th Hour were the best of the bunch. Then we enjoyed VooDoo near where we stayed. Very cool vibe. They had old wooden doors that had been painted by local artists and they were hanging flat from the ceiling. They had these rolling, caged fire pits out in the beer garden… those are a great idea!

Just thought you might want to know the loop holes to shipping beer, but fuck me, right?

Why? I’m not the person shipping beer. I’m pretty damn sure none of the breweries I would order from would use “loopholes” and risk shipping me beer.
