Jeez, just visit a northeast U.S. town on St Patrick's Day. Lots of green shirts getting simian shit-faced.

i found a location map for establishments that carry it, so far the nearest place is  hundreds of miles away, but i may be able to make an online purchase for in-store pickup at a local beer wine store...
i found some..  my first drink of commercial alcoholic ginger beer.. 8)
it is interesting in comparison to my home brew, much much sweeter and far less ginger kick, the Crabbies is more like a ginger ale (soda ) with alcohol. the home brew is dry with a strong ginger burn and a much higher alcohol content, the color of home brew has a more lemonade color,  the Crabbies  is a darker cider shade, the Crabbies also has more carbonation (which i really liked and need to reproduce in my brew)
over all i would say it is GOOD STUFF

-Belief is the death of intelligence. As soon as one believes a doctrine of any sort, or assumes certitude, one stops thinking about that aspect of existence
