Hello,
My husband had La Rossa beer at a restaurant in Manhattan and loved it. I would like to surprise him with some for a gift. Do you know where I can purchase it?
Thanks,
Barbara Iuviene
You shouldn't have any problem finding Moretti La Rossa at any well stocked beer retailer. Assuming you're in the NYC area, check out http://www.nycbeer.org/toc.html for retailer listings.
I'm looking to find a list of beers and the countries they are brewed and bottled. Could you help me with this? We probably don't need more than the top 40 sellers in the USA. Thanks, Bruce
A wealth of such information is available on ratebeer.com and beeradvocate.com. All you need do on either site is register for free.
Dear Stephen,
My boss was in New York and had a beer that he fell in love with. I have tried to find it to get him some for Christmas and thought maybe you can help me. The name of the beer is Innis & Gunn and I think it is made in Scotland. Please let me know if you have any information. Thank you so much,
Bonnie from Michigan
You have the name right, Bonnie, and I can vouch for it being a most enjoyable brew. Unfortunately, it's not sold yet in Michigan, judging from the beer's website (http://www.innisandgunn.com/aroundtheworld.htm), but if you happen to live near the Canadian border, it IS sold in Ontario at the province's LCBO stores. If this is a route you might take, check the website at www.lcbo.com for store availability.
