SWMBO just called and said that both UPS and FedEx refused to ship our entries for the Sam Adams Longshot contest.
As soon as they saw the shipping label (it must be shipped to "Sam Adams Longshot Homebrew Contest" - gee, I wonder what's in the box?) they refused. UPS even opened the package when SWMBO tried the "live yeast sample" thing.
Both companies said they would only ship the beer if we had a distributor license. We're going to see if our local craft-beer centric beer store will help us out.
Frustrating.
Anyone else have trouble?
