Isn't Budweiser about to come under European ownership soon, maybe they can change the name so the real Budweiser can reclaim the trademark in most countries.

After missions one and two I only have four countries to get...for those that care (and those that don't but are reading ths for some reason).
Group A
Czech Republic - Bernard Dark and Herold Dark (will get Pilsner Urquell as well)
Switzerland - Still searching
Portugal - Super Bock
Turkey - Efes
Group B
Austria - Err...
Croatia - Hmmm....
Poland - Zywiec
Germany - Bitburger (in bottles, and the town is in the title of a Ramones song)
Group C
Romania - Ursus
France - Kronenbourg Blanc
Netherlands - Amstell
Italy - Peroni
Group D
Greece - Ah, erm...
Sweden - Koppaberg Pear Cider (I cheated, but if Sweden play on a hot day, it'll be sweet)
Russia - Baltika
Spain - Estrella Dram (saw no notice if US Budweiser, and said imported from Sapin, so I'm hopeful.
I have a mission to an offie tomorrow that I've never been to that may help.
I'll update you whether you care or not.

Has anyone seen Warsteiner or Bitburger cans for sale in the UK? Oh yes! They are usually both sold in bottles in shops though, I have seen Bitburger on draught before. Not as common as your Loewenbraeu's, Becks and Holsten mind. Tesco do a fair mix these days, they sprung a suprise on me be doing Erdinger and Paulaner! Erdinger is espcially ace coming from Franconia (not Bavaria - *spit*!). |

Living in Leicester, of course, this will be sod all use or interest to any of you. |

I'll update you whether you care or not. I would advise replacing Portugal's Super Bock with Sagres, in the Algarve earlier this year all I drank was Sagres on tap and it was bloody lovely, and no hangover at all the whole 5 days we were there!! Spain - Mahou which is drunk in Madrid and Estelle Damm in Barcelona are much nicer than the horrid San Miguel. I went to a festival in Bitburg in Germany last year, Bitburger drank in the sun on tap, bloody lovely! I have 2 cans of Zwiecz (sp) on my desk at work in homage to my trip to Gdansk earlier in the year. Polish beer is strong and delicious! I am not surprised you haven't got a beer for Austria, people there are probably afraid to go down to their cellars in case there are random women down there! |

I've just seen that label and recognise it...maybe I've seen in England...have to search. My trip to the offie was no good, they had nothing. A friend is now checking a shop in Nottingham for me...my quest continues... |

don't know if anyone else is giving this a go, but I just started my tournament, although i'm still looking for greece, romania, croatia, and really not trying that hard to look for a swiss one.
Efes v Super Bock was a quality game although conditions (nice sunny day on the patio) really favoured Super Bock. Efes weren't really match ready (could have done with another 30 minutes in the fridge). But an entertaining fixture with much to offer, easy 2-1 win to Super Bock.
Looking forward to the Austrian fixture - found Urbock which is 9.6%
