Well I was in NYC last year for my daughter's wedding and was very happy to find Czech Pilsner available quite freely. Even some VERY obscure bottled items in supermarkets too - some I think would not do so well if people knew more about their origins - the one from the town of crazy people, for example..

HOWEVER I also had the pleasure of sharing a couple of beers with propeller members too!
The company is ALWAYS more important than the beer [or you're in SERIOUS trouble!] but one of the brews in a small pub just by Union Square was especially palatable - fortunately not enough to make me emigrate :)
What is really brilliant here is going to a small town and finding a small brewery that makes some quite unique brew.
My recent kissing expedition yielded one of those - a brewery attached to a glassworks where - apart from making a lager and a dark beer of 1st class quality, they also make a weak beer specially for the workers, which they consume throughout their workday. This one is not allowed to be sold but I had the good fortune to be offered a taste by a resting worker.-

Thanks! It was not the easiest of passages but once we landed in this small ski-resort town - out of season of course - most of the pleasures of life came our way.

One of our dogs came home sick though, so we had to go into emergency mode immediately after getting home.

The micro-brewery thing was just starting before I left the US. The nearest to where I was living then was called "Magic Hat" in Burlington, VT.

I do try to keep up-to-date with developments across the great water - I wouldn't be here if I wasn't interested!
