On the trail of the missing beer, but the spinning beer bottle predicts bad news for the Ravens

We are getting closer to finding the missing beer, Kronenbourg 1664.

Randi Settleman, general manager of Bond Distributing, the distributor of this beer, called me today and told me it is available at these area liquor stores: North Charles Fine Wines and Spirits, Greenspring Liquors and Deli, Cranbook Liquors, Calvert Liquors, Jason's, The Perfect Pour, Pine Orchard.

However, when I called Cranbook in Cockeysville they told me they didn't have it, but if Bond has it in stock they could order it.  I suggest calling these stores to verify that they have it, before going there. The beer is now part of the Carlsberg empire.

On another front, the spinning beer bottle, Flying Dog Classic Pale Ale, predicts a Ravens loss to the Browns. It is a good beer; we shall see how good a prognosticator it is.

Any thoughts on these beers, or the prediction?

Hey Rob, they carry it at the Rite Aid on Howard Street right in front of the Lexington Market. I saw it a few days ago. Hope that helps.
