1 liter?
Really?
OMG!!!
What will happen if you allow 2 liters/per person?
Will the American economy breakdown?
People bring back whatever they have in their truck and rarely declare what's in the back.
Total lame laws.
Chill the heck out.

3 cans of beer per person is allowed for Californians (12 oz x 3 = 36 oz pretty close to a liter)

Yo derek;
I was surprised when the CBP informed me the the 6 pack was twice the amount allowed. One liter of beer. That's it. I guess it's like only two
dorado.

This is old news, but germane to this thread. Around Xmas time in 1979 I crossed north at the San Ysidro border with 10 cases of Pacifico in my boat
trailed behind my camper. (that's 200 beers) I declared the beers, said they were gifts for amigos in ND, and that I wanted to pay the import duty.
They sent me to secondary where the overworked agent took one look at the load, asked me where I was headed, and I told him...North Dakota. He
pointedly said, 'Listen up. You're going straight to ND, right? You are NOT stopping in California, RIGHT?' I clued in and said, 'No sir, I am not
going to stop in California.'
He said, "Good. Have a Merry Christmas on Uncle Sam and get outta here."
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

State Limit
Read the fine print.........if you have Calif DL and registration, you are limited.
">>>>>>>>>>>Most States restrictions on the amount of alcohol that can be brought into that State apply only to
residents of that State. Usually people transiting a state are not subject to those restrictions, but sometimes regulations change, and if this is a
matter of utmost importance to you, you can check with the state Alcohol Beverage Control Board where you will be arriving to find out what their
policies are.<<<<<<<<<<<<<<"

Keep reading the article and follow the link to the "Tarriffs" page:
http://www.usitc.gov/publications/docs/tata/hts/bychapter/09...
As usual, the regulations seem to be written by the same govt employees that write the IRS tax gobbledegook.....
It appears that the tariff is 13.2 cents/liter or about 12 cents/12 oz bottle.
There are several footnotes, conditions, asterisks, cross-references, etc.
If you really want to know, keep digging......
Better yet, just drink the beer before the border!

Never did have much luck no matter what I said. Like avocados. Try bringing ONE back. Has nothing to do with disease.
