What special things do I have to and/or charges do I have to pay to ship alcohol? It will be some small 50 ML bottles, all of which are plastic.

    You do have to declare it as a flammable or it's a felony.

    Not sure about beer, but I wouldn't ship a carbonated liquid under any circumstance.

    I was told that you can get around the shipping regs by labling the package "Contains Yeast"...I'm not sure if that is true, but I have a couple six packs of some local brew I need to ship out.

    But, if it's handled roughly or exposed to adverse temeratures (and this is the time of year for that), it will leak. If it does, I would expect a knock at the door and some legal fees.
