"We are in Texas"?!? Isn't that like saying "Does anyone know a local store where I can buy Miller Lite? We live in Europe." Texas is a darned big place, after all!

I believe that Central Market in Plano has Green King IPA (not that I drink the stuff). It certainly has one of the largest ranges of British bottled and canned beer I've seen around here.

...which is bugger all use to you if you're in Galveston, Houston, Austin or any of the other 1,000,000 places in Texas that are a hundred miles or more from Dallas!

Most places in Texas have the same chain of supermarket and that was what I meant or if anyone knew if it could be ordered on line - didnt expect a smart answer and you were not much help anyway - Thanks for nothing

hiya, guess you've tried specs, there's a super sized specs inside the loop here and we find them a wealth of info if you're looking for something special and if they don't have it they will probably know who will...cheers

lolly

So do I, my bar of choice served the best pint in SE London.

Unfortunately not possible, a draught beer that could just make it to SE London, but not a lot further.

In my village/town the offie does sell canned Greene King, but never the same as the real stuff.

PS Brewery worth a visit if you are ever that way.

Wow! Did you have your sense of humour surgically removed, or did it just fall off from lack of use?

Lolly, in case you missed it, my comment about the size of Texas was a joke, was not intended as an insult to you, and my answer was genuinely an attempt to help you find your IPA. Good luck!

Did you not notice ...recently we have become surrounded by humorless buggers...

lolly

No sense of humour is still intact maybe too English not mixed yet with an American sense of humour

lolly

Ray maybe you are confusing humour with sarcasm

Ray

Never heard of sarcastic humor....

No, I think the sense of humor thing is more related to being new around here. It seems that online it's acceptable to go into someone's house and rip them a new rear end before you've really taken the time to suss things out, whereas you'd never do that in real life.

And don't even get me started on trolls.

Aren't they the same thing or am I just being sarcastic? Wouldn't that be ironic?
