Buy This Now

Hell yeah - just noticed this feature. Elevated IPA en route to my house.



I really like this feature. And it would be nice to see a listing of all "Buy This Now" beers if possible.



Nice work!!

$5 shipping sounds nice, until you see the beers are all at least 2x retail. Yikes!

What are we talking about here?

How exactly does a retailer get a link here?

We’re debuting with all the brewers and beers linked to beerjobber and will probably be expanding to a larger set of retailers after we’ve worked out the kinks.

The beers come direct from the brewer, so $20 for a growler sized (64 oz) volume of Jeff Erway’s GABF Gold Medal winning IPA seems pretty good for an expanded list of beers.

We haven’t been getting the word about this yet, but are making efforts in that direction.

BTW, feel free to offer gentle suggestions to your favorite brewer to get on board.

It’s definitely a little extra work on their part and there a number of logistical concerns -- it’s not right for everyone -- but many brewers will be able to take advantage of this method, be able to control and offer proper handling/packing/quality, and receive a fair and unhyped price.

Meanwhile the customers benefit from greater access to highly rated and rare beer, better quality handling and all at a fair price.

If a brewer can ship directly - via Beerjobber or otherwise - that is great. I don’t think Beerjobber ships to where I live, but it’s another way for beers to get to places that they can’t via distribution. Maybe Cascade and Pelican - who do ship directly to customers in some states - would participate.

It also says its 4 x 16oz cans
