Beverages & More carries Belikin - it is now in the BevMo here in Fresno on a regular basis - about 12 cases in the store when I was in last week. I've also found it in several of their LA stores- it's my understanding they are the only store w/ an agreement w/ Belikin to import.

Before they started carrying it locally the first time I contacted them about shipping it to me they told me they had to check because different counties in CA have different rules about what beers can come in. No idea about shipping to other states. With the fairly recent US Supreme Ct ruling on shipping wine across state lines I can't see why there would be a problem from a legal standpoint.

Cheers!

Was it real Belikin or that Premium stuff?

right now it's the premium stuff only - $7.99 a six pack

personally I dont wish to have one barrel or belikin available to me unless Iam in Sp..its all a part of the magic of being there

I've been able to find Belikin in the Walnut Creek, CA BevMo even when the website shows 'o' in stock. They actually had cases stacked in an isle display.

"They actually had cases stacked in an isle display."

Almost brings tears to the eyes.

Islenutt - how are you! Long time no hear! It's almost worth a trip to Walnut Creek to pick up a case.

LaurieMar - you know I have a bottle of One Barrel Waiting for you

Surely you can get ample supplies of paint thinners? as they have a remarkable similarity to both One Barrel and Bellyache sorry Belikin, IMO

I concur. I simply do not find that this totally monopolistic/rigged third world "national"( :rolleyes: ) beer be of any great quality.
It might be nice as a novelty, but good heavens, that's about it.

So who's forcing you to buy it?
