every time I send beer and they ask what it is, I always tell them "we just got back from Napa and have bottles of olive oil we're sending to family in _____ (wherever I'm sending it)" and I've never had a problem

I usually tell them they are collectible glassware.....that seems to work fine.

BUT, I do agree it is bullshit that they will "ship" wine but not beer......WHEN is beer gonna get the respect it rightly deserves......screw them bastards!!!
