I then had the Noel last month in France, but have yet to see it here in the States. It was an amazing beer and would love to find it here. So rare to find a winter beer that's not overwhelming...

Star Brands has pretty much been dissolved over the past year with Paulaner creating it's own import company for Paulaner and Hacker-Pschorr. From what I can find, Heineken still has a 50% stake in the Affligem brewery also.That guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07891078315318731490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7315262155858800734.post-89839371266807031272009-11-25T23:08:05.275-05:002009-11-25T23:08:05.275-05:00Lew,

It should be on tap at the Blue Ox in early December. Maybe I'll see you there!Kevinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03619533483346269308noreply@blogger.com
