Does not seem worth bringing it all the way from Germany. They do online ordering and home delivery.

Just a point to remember (if you manage to get all those bottles in your hold luggage without them breaking):
You're only permitted to bring back booze (without getting hit for excise duty) for 'personal use'. That includes bona fide gifts to others but excludes anything which you get paid for (or otherwise receive something in exchange for), even if you don't make a profit on it.
So, if you do get questioned by HMRC staff, it's essential that you make it clear that you're bringing back gifts. If you indicate that you've brought back any booze where you'll be paid (at cost price) for it, you'll get it confiscated.
