Wont work.......people will just not send beer...Trust me
If the idea is pitched the right way they will - instead of the end user being defined as the consumer of the beer, if it is pitched that the main user is the sender of the beer and the reward for sending is feedback and critique - then there is incentive for the user to send the beer. The hard part would then be how to weed out the receivers that will provide constructive feedback from those that just want free beer (without creating a barrier to entry for new reviewers).
Its not the shipping thats the easy part...its getting people that will actually get round to doing it
something like this?
So this will be more person to person than group based? I like the concept, but you may ned to be a bit cautious with some aspects. Setting a "price" for the beer may raise questions around supplying alcohol without a licence. What I would be better is a rating on whether an individual provides feedback on the beer (and if that feedback is good, bad or indifferent). Basically then you can select those people that have will provide feedback on you beer rather then those just looking for free beer without giving anything back (but also doesn't exclude those that for whatever reason can't share as much beer as others but have really good advice to give).
What is going to be the cost to sign up? or will you cover the costs of hosting/running the site by advertisement?
Good point around the reliability of the user / being a reliable critic. I'll have a think and see if I could incorporate this feedback.
I have had a lengthy read of the legislation and checked with the HPA (Health Promotion Agency) who administer (along with local councils) the alcohol act. Their response verbatim was "the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act 2012 does not deal specifically with home brewing or its distribution via trading or swapping"
It sounds like it's all a bit of a gray area.
Im keen sounds like a good idea to me
