    I'll be visitiing NYC (staying in Midtown) next week (from AZ), and was excited to see that Andechs is distributed to some places on the East coast. I've had it in Germany and thought the dobblebock was one of the best beers I've ever tasted. I definitely want to bring some back with me...any tips on bottle shops in Manhattan that carry Andechs?

    The beer section of any Whole Foods, but particularly the Bowery store (Houston St.).

    Prospect Heights Beer Works in Brooklyn is the only place in NYC where I've noticed Andechs - but I think those beers have been sitting there for a while. I don't recall seeing any at Whole Foods. Definitely call ahead to any shop.

    I've seen the Doppelbock and Vollbier Hell at Chelsea Whole Foods. Likely to be at others.

    They had the doppelbock at Beer Culture on 45th fairly regularly until I noticed they were out when I was in their last on Monday. They still had the Hefeweizen, though, I think. I'd check there.

    Definitely Whole Foods Bowery. They should have plenty. Check out New Beer Distributors around the corner from there also, just in case.

    You might even be able to find some on tap at a bar if that interests you. At the moment, Ginger Man has the Dunkles Weissbier.

    I can, indeed, confirm the doppelbock is back on the shelves at Beer Culture.

    You can cross the river and check out the Pilsner Haus in Hoboken.
