My last vacation roundup post

Having drunk gallons of this marvelous amber fluid, Victoria Bitter, over the last two weeks, I am now hopelessly addicted. Upon returning to Podunkville I frantically search my local Boozerama but to no avail. In despair, I consult the Internet. Stumbling upon this web site faq answer from the purveyors of what is undoubtedly the world's finest beer, I start to cry:

QUESTION: Is Victoria Bitter available in the USA?

ANSWER: VB is not available to be purchased by the general public in the USA and
due to the laws of the Food & Drug Administration and US Customs it is not possible to arrange personal shipments. Product requires additional labelling including the Surgeon General's Warning, in some states a license is required to receive alcohol and import tariffs are charged at a Federal & State levels which along with shipping costs makes the consignment very expensive. For these reasons we do not arrange personal deliveries and can only advise that it is a very difficult exercise. Our strategy at this time does not include the distribution of VB in the USA.

More reasons to kill myself.
