Does anyone on here properly understand the rules about buying beer and wine mail order from within the EU?
As far as I can see the regulations regarding tax stamps and health warnings are only on spirits.
If I buy some beer with local duty and vat paid from Germany or Belgium and have it shipped here, am I liable for any more tax?

Great consensus. I think I'll give it a miss.
