Sale of Alcohol / Legal Ordering Age

You must be over 18 years old to buy goods from this website.  Otter Brewery will not sell to anyone under the UK legal drinking age of 18 years. You must ensure that the details provided by you on ordering or at any time are correct and complete and you must be able to supply proof of age on request.

Card Payment

We accept online payment in a secure environment by credit/Debit card and currently accept Visa, MasterCard, Delta and Maestro (Switch).  We use the latest online security software to ensure your details are safe.  Otter Brewery does not have access to your card details and does not store them.

All payments made to Otter Brewery will be subject to security checks from the card provider.  This is done through a validation process with the issuing card company using comparative information supplied from the customer and the issuing card company.  We may also contact you by email or phone to confirm some order information with you.  This will be done prior to your order being processed and may cause a delay in dispatch.

Prices

All prices quoted on this website are accurate at the time of publication and are quoted in pounds sterling (£), and where appropriate are inclusive of UK sales tax (VAT) at the current rate.  We reserve the right to alter prices at any time.

If we discover an error in the price or description of an item you have ordered, we may cancel your order at any time up to the point we sent the item to you.  We will contact you where we become aware of an error and ask you whether you wish to continue with your order at the correct price or cancel it.  If we do cancel your order you will receive a full refund of any charges paid in advance.

My payment has been declined

The decline of payment from your card will be a direct instruction from the card provider.  As this is the case we are unable to provide further information on why this decision has been made.  We would suggest contacting your card provider regarding this. You are more than welcome to use an alternative method of payment, should you wish.

Order acceptance and contract

We will send you a confirmation email within 24 hours of your order being placed, to confirm receipt of your order.  Orders placed by you are an offer to purchase and will be accepted by us, subject to stock availability.  Once you have received your confirmation email, we cannot change the details of the order (product, quantities or delivery address).  Please ensure you review all your details before you complete the checkout process.

On occasion the stock position relating to particular items may change.  If an item is not in stock at the time of processing your order, we will let you know as soon as possible by email.  We are able to back order it for you and send the item(s) as soon as they are available, or we can arrange a full refund.

The contract for the sale of goods will be formed when we send an email to you to confirm that we have dispatched the product(s) to the address you provide us with.  Acceptance will be complete at the time that we send this email to you.

Complaints

Our aim is to deal with any problems you may have fairly and efficiently.  We will respond as soon as possible, but within ten working days and explain what actions we intend to take to resolve your complaint.
