$6/12oz bottle. A case from luekensliquors would come out to 4.25/bottle.

If you only want a few bottles then letspour is as good as any place. Just keep in mind they overprice on the assumption of 6 bottles. If you buy any more than 6 bottles then you are overpaying for shipping.


At luekens, For a case of 12oz bottles, shipping is $36 (including the box fee). They have alot of good stuff so a case would not be hard to make. Hell i could make 2 cases and still have a fun time cutting stuff down to size.


*This is for shipping to Lafayette area.

If you've never ordered from letspour, you get $10 your 1st order. I don't know rouges situation with them but I know he was looking for moo-hoo

6 bombers for $26 is pretty awesome

ETA: not bombers. Whoops

The prices on there definitely have shipping costs built-in. They are certainly not offering "free shipping" as they advertise.

and with most places, the cost/bottle goes down the more you buy. Not so with letspour.

They do get some decent stuff though and like Louie t said, you do get $10 off your first order and a chance for up to $100 of orders after than.

that's why I suggested luekens. They have Moo-hoo as well as others from terrapin, cigar city, etc.

Agreed.

Yes, they do. I'll probably order from them eventually.

I just find the whole "free shipping" gimmick a little insulting to the intelligence of craft beer drinkers.

No doubt

Even if they tack on $1-2 per bottle, it's still much cheaper than most sites unless buying huge amounts

halftime has free shipping on orders of 12 or 24 bottles.

Holidaywinecellar ships free certain months and def no price hiking for te most part. (Recently bought 10 bombers shipped free from sandiego)

Not sure how much is overpriced but they do have GI bcbs 4 packs for $26

the catch is that you have to all for the good stuff and try may be out. The good new is that I was able to get a couple of things that weren't online (including lost abbey red poppy) by asking them to "throw one more bottle in you think I need"

Eta: in October they did free shipping on orders of $50+, in December it was free shipping on $75+

They're tacking on more than that and I'm not sure if it comes out cheaper compared to most other places, let alone much cheaper.

For example, bombers of Southern Tier Choklat Stout are $12.50 a piece on Let's Pour. So you buy 6 to get free shipping and you're paying $75 total, assuming no handling fee. Lueken Liquors sells bombers for $8.50, and the shipping and handling is $22 on an order of 6. So your total is $73, a little less at Leukens.

If I change the order to 12 bombers, then Let's Pour is $150 total versus $134 at Leukens.

Yes, I was specifically referring to Let's Pour with the price hiking. Haven't really scrutinized free shipping deals on other sites.

So letspour is only a good deal if you want 6 bottles, a variety of west coast and east coast brews (their biggest advantage), and its your first order.
