If you purchased a gift announcement card to be mailed directly to your recipient (versus inside the shipping box with the craft beer), the card will be printed out at our facility within 24 hours and sent out via the US Postal Service from our office in Santa Barbara, California. If purchased on a Friday, the card will be printed out the following Monday. Cards should be received within 2-7 days, depending on the speed of the USPS and the location of the recipient. Alternatively, you have the option to download a FREE customized Gift Announcement Card from our website. In any case, there will be a sentence on the delivery company shipping label that reads, "A Gift from your name here".
