Where to buy Dreher beer in the U.S. I once tracked a case to somewhere in NJ, but did not believe it was there and was shortly going to Hungary, so I did not want to drive from Virginia to NJ, but I would have had it not been for my trip to Hungary. I live in Germany now and once went to Hungary without a passport before they opened their border and could not get in. I could not find Drher or any Hungarian beer on the Austrian side of the border. Bottom line is that despite my searches online and in stores, I have never found any Hungarian beer outside of Hungary. When I drive to Hungary, I bring about three cases of Dreher back with me. Tesco is typically the cheapest place and there is a Tesco in Gyor, which on the way back to Austria on the route through Viena. There is just no other way. I have expanded my horizans to finding other beers to suit my taste. Heiniken is about the closest common beer. Tyske, a Polish beer is also good. Of the German beers, a good Helles meets the bill. Augistiner or Spaten seems to be the best and around Oktoberfest time their special brew is best. Dreher Classic is still the best, but in Germany I can get by. As for my time in America, I recommend bringing back a six-pack of cans and that is about all you are going to get back. This is an age old questioned I have searched the answer for.
