I've been enjoying these 4 pack .5 liter cans of Bitburger lately. Really a nice macro and it evens out all the bocks I've been drinking. One thing I noticed: a 4 pack of .5 liter cans goes for $4.99, and one of those 5 liter keg cans costs $16.99! So, 2 liters of beer for = $4.99 and 5 liters = $16.99? I asked at the store if that keg can contained a magical last liter that was worth charging me an extra seven bucks. _Randal |

Did you get the light or the dark version? It's brewed in Vienna by the Ottakringer brewery; I've seen (and drunk) both versions in bars there, but I didn't know they were exporting it now too. -- Regards Mike |

Ottakringer doesn't brew anything for Kapsreiter that I know of. -- dgs |

I'm certain it was originally brewed by Ottakringer. Maybe that's changed for some reason? -- Regards Mike |

Eh, it happens. > I'm certain it was originally brewed by Ottakringer. Maybe that's > changed for some reason? No change. I toured Ottakringer with the head brewer, Andreas Rosa, last summer, talked plenty about the what they make, who owns them, and all that. Ottakringer doesn't brew Kapsreiter. -- dgs |

Ottakringer doesn't brew Kapsreiter. OK, thanks for the clarification then. I discovered it many years ago in my local in Vienna, which is an Ottakringer bar. I don't particularly like Ottakringer's draught beer, so I was pleased to discover the bottled Kaps. -- Regards Mike mikedotroebuckatgmxdotnet |
