Kronenbourg comes to Texas
After years of waiting, my set is complete 
I can now get Becks, Stella and K1664 in Austin. I'd already bought some K1664 pint glasses and I've enjoyed my weekend

I did have to wait for 4 years
Last time I contacted the US importers, they said they were introducing it on a state by state basis, so several other states already have it. Maybe you'll get lucky soon

Re: Kronenbourg comes to Texas
It came to Maine, and then left, I seemed to have been the only one getting it *lol*...but it's around a few places in Mass, not nearly as cheap as it was when it was in Maine though.
Now if only I could get Caffrey's, I'd be a happy chappy

I was watching 'Armagedon' with the boy last week, he was terrified when fragments hit earth twice destroying major cities, I told him that every cloud had a silver linning ..... The second destroyed was Paris.
