To be honest, I haven't really been paying attention to their availability
in the LA area, because I'm rarely in a Weissbier mood. But Schneider
distributes pretty widely in the States, so I'd be surprised if they can't
be found in SoCal.

Best bets to look include Liquor and Wine Warehouse (or whatever the name
is - it's something close to that) in Van Nuys. Beverages and More probably
have it as well (locations throughout SoCal - check www.bevmo.com). Best
beer store in the area, IMO, requires a bit of a hike for you, down to Costa
Mesa, where Hi Time Wines is located. They also sell online -
www.hitimewine.com.
