Need help from cali...

I made a post in the beer thread, but figured I'd get a little more attention here...

I just saw that Stone Brewing Co. just released a beer that I'd really like to get but they only list it being available in California (and one AZ store). If anyone would be willing to buy me a bottle or 2 and ship it to me, I would really appreciate it. I would obviously reimburse you for all the costs. It's a limited brew so I would really like to get my hands on one if I can.

Ken Schmidt/ Maui / Stone Kona Coffee Macadmia Coconut Porter. http://www.stonebrew.com/collab/index.htm#coconut

Should look like this...



There are a couple others the same bottle design but are called something else so pay attention to the name.

Edit: that's a huge pic, but oh well. If you find the Holiday Ale (same style lable with different name) I would also appreciate a bottle of that...

I really appreciate any help.

I am... 12/31/87. I dont really feel like posting a pic of my ID online, but whoever is buying for me can see it if they'd like. You can also claim it as alcohol and require a signature from someone 21+ when delivered.

I've checked the list and its all in the LA area, where I am not located, but I haven't had a chance to call bevmo and ask them if they could get me some shipped up here. I'll give them a call now to see what they say.

EDIT: Just called and BevMo says they can't ship anything from one store to another for me, but I can buy it from a store and get it sent to my doorstep. I suggest calling any Bev Mo! in the southern california region and ask them to ship some to your doorstep. This would eliminate the middle man which would be me,or whoever for that matter. If you still would like me to order it to my doorstep and then ship it to you I can do this. Just let me know if you want me to make the phone call and place the order. You can also just PM me to discuss any further details. Hope this helps!

Thanks! I just checked their site to see if I could order from there but they didn't have it, so I'll give them a call.

I called Emillio's beverage warehouse in Bellflower, they are pretty good and usually have the odd beers but he doesn't have it. Asked me to call tomorrow in the morning and he'll see if he can get more.

I searched online again just to make sure and found a place that just put it up on their site so I was able to order from them... Actually found a few other things I wanted.

Thanks for the help everyone! I need to make a trip to cali sometime... you guys have a lot of great breweries.
