1. OUR CONTRACT WITH YOU

1.1 Our contract: These terms and conditions (Terms) apply to the order by you and supply of goods by us to you (Contract). No other terms are implied by trade, custom, practice or course of dealing.

1.2 Entire agreement: The Contract is the entire agreement between us in relation to its subject matter. You acknowledge that you have not relied on any statement, promise or representation or assurance or warranty that is not set out in the Contract.

2. PLACING AN ORDER AND ITS ACCEPTANCE

2.1 Placing your order: Please follow the onscreen prompts to place an order. Each order is an offer by you to buy the goods specified in the order (Goods) subject to these Terms.

2.2 Correcting input errors: Our order process allows you to check and amend any errors before submitting your order to us. Please check the order carefully before confirming it. You are responsible for ensuring that your order is complete and accurate.

2.3 Acknowledging receipt of your order: After you place an order, you will receive an email from us acknowledging that we have received it, but please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Our acceptance of your order will take place as described in clause 2.4.

2.4 Accepting your order: We will confirm our acceptance to you by sending you an email that confirms that your order has been accepted, at which point the Contract between you and us will come into existence. Our third-party courier, Parcelforce, will then send you an email when the Goods are ready to be dispatched and another email to confirm the date of delivery of the Goods.

2.5 If we cannot accept your order: If we are unable to supply you with the Goods for any reason, we will inform you of this by email and we will not process your order. If you have already paid for the Goods, we will refund you the full amount including any delivery costs charged as soon as possible.

2.6 Bulk orders: We limit the number of items you can purchase of the same product. The maximum number of items you can order is limited to 20 cases / BIBs across the range. Unfortunately, we can’t make exceptions for one-off occasions. We need to ensure that there are enough products for all our customers and also promote responsible drinking.

5. DELIVERY, TRANSFER OF RISK AND TITLE

5.1 We request that you provide us with your mobile number at checkout and you will receive a text message on the day of delivery to advise of a 2-hour window when your order will be delivered. Occasionally our delivery to you may be affected by an Event Outside Our Control. See clause 9 (Events outside our control) for our responsibilities when this happens.

5.2 Delivery is complete once the Goods have been unloaded at the address for delivery set out in your order and the Goods will be at your risk from that time.

5.3 If you are not in when delivery is made, a card will be left with details of where to collect your order from or how to arrange re-delivery (where this is possible). Please note that if you do not act promptly to collect your order or arrange for re-delivery, the contents of your order will be returned to us and a full refund will be issued to your account.

5.4 You can nominate a safe place where your order can be left (e.g. with a neighbour or in the shed). No orders will be left at the delivery address unless we have your specific instructions to do so. Please note, if you instruct us to leave your order at the delivery address unattended, this is entirely at your own risk.

5.5 You own the Goods once we have received payment in full, including of all applicable delivery charges.

5.5 If we fail to deliver the Goods, our liability is limited to the cost of obtaining replacement goods of a similar description and quality in the cheapest market available, less the price of the Goods. However, we will not be liable to the extent that any failure to deliver was caused by an Event Outside Our Control, a breach from you to clause 5.6, or because you failed to provide adequate delivery instructions or any other instructions that are relevant to the supply of goods.

5.6 Whilst we endeavour to ensure that our products are not delivered to anyone under the age of 18, it is your responsibility to make appropriate arrangements for either an adult to be available to take delivery during the delivery window notified to you or if no adult is available then you nominate a safe place for us to leave our products. We communicate delivery times to customers very clearly to facilitate this and we will not accept any liability where someone under the age of 18 accepts delivery of the products on your behalf.
