    Hopefully. I've been trying to get my hands on it for a while but no sign of it so far.

    And even more bad news for Galway beer lovers ... Harvest Offlicences which were great for stocking craft beers are going out of business (possibly already closed) :(

    I can find out for you tomorrow morning. I work for Noreast beers and we import Budvar.

    The answer is No from my side anyway. We used to bring it in and brought some in for Oktoberfest to try and get some interest but we decided it wasnt worth bringing it in unless we can take in a few pallets of the stuff.

    No demand for a few pallets so its off the list.

    You tried to flog a Czech beer at Oktoberfest? I think I see where the problem might be :p

    Sad to see Budvar Dark leave the Irish market. It's a great beer and there aren't nearly enough dark lagers in these parts.

    Sorry, we brought it in during the Oktoberfest time to sell to the trade, not actually at Oktoberfest in Dublin. People's mind would have been programmed around that type of Market so we ran with it. :P

    There is a lot of parallel stock being imported by every tom dick and harry wholesaler around the country. Somebody might have it.
