Does anyone know a source of Ringnes Norwegian Beer (bottles) in the
Boston Metronorth area. I haven't seen it in quite some time, and have
a sudden yearning for it.

TIA

if you can find Aass
Apparently .... Aass is no more, for now ... word is they pulled out of the
US due to their importer going out of business.

I haven't been able to get word back from either to confirm.

If someone knows ... please post.

According to the Aass website, they have distributors in 21 states. No
info on latest update, though.

If you live in a state with no distributor, you are encouraged to contact
the importer (All Saint's Brands) or Aass themselves directly.

If you are unable to get an answer from them by mail, I'd be happy to call
them and ask what happened to the US distribution.

For reference:

That's how dedicated & passionate those Norwegian's are -- especially when
it comes to beer...

Speaking of which -- does anyone know if the Norwegian ale Steamer is
available in the US, or more specifically, in the San Francisco Bay Area?

Thanks for the info, and the offer to contact Aass. We've got quite a few
people asking about Aass on our site, and nothing but rumors to work with,
and brewery websites are often not updated in a timely fashion. Reports from
beer stores state that the beer is no longer available in the US. Again ...
just going on what we're hearing.

The importer that apparently went bust is indeed All Saint Brands ... there
phone number is no longer operational and emails go unanswered.
