Bristol Farms in Pasadena sells Hinano at $2 per bottle or $9 per six pack. I picked one up today and pretended that I was back in tahiti.

About the same price plus shipping. They have a new guy distributing the beer here in California. The other guy was in Hawaii and he really didnt do such a great job. I tried and tried to do it here in the states but no way. The other problem is the brewery in Tahiti does not want to over expand and increase production for the U.S., Australia and New Zealand market. They are making enough money on the Tahiti market and dont want to work to hard. ITs the Tahitian way.
