Everybody wants to do Fed-Ex cuz they think the faster the better, however, you have to look at it from a customs agent perspective. If you list the contents of the package at $20-30 range, then why spend $40+ to ship it? That's a red flag, and you want to minimize those.

If I had to do it over again, I would ship the beer in a box of extra virgin olive oil and a box of imported pasta. On the customs sheet list the contents as is, that way the pasta hides the sound of the fluid and IF they here any sloshing they'll likely chalk it up to the olive oil. Plus, EVOO + Pasta is a not uncommon gift combo so nothing unusual there.

The EVOO would not go to waste in my house so I'm not really spending extra cash in that regard.
