I'm looking for some advice from the collective wisdom and knowledge of my fellow P/Hers.
I want to send someone who has done me a favour a drink abroad (France) Ideally, it would actually be 16 cans of their favourite tipple (beer) but this will be stupidly expensive I would imagine.
So what's the alternatives, send him some cash, a guiness gift voucher, bank transfer or some other clever alternative.
All serious smileoptions will be gratefully received, thanks in advance.

A quick look seems to suggest that UK companies can't send overseas due to export restrictions. Beer52 and Beers of Europe both ship to UK only.

Are there any companies in France you could order from and get them to deliver to him, or failing that, get him to buy something then send him the money by PayPal?

Bottles packaged very well. This is how I have shipped Beer to the US before.
