There was a chain of off-licenses (booze shops) over here that many years ago started selling a few US beers when they just weren't seen in this country, and for some reason they tended to mostly be Flying Dog. I'm not sure if it was the Ralph Steadman connection or not. They started selling Flying Dog and Pete's Wicked Ale, then they later got some Anchor, Sierra Nevada Pale and Sam Adams lager if I remember rightly. The latter three tend to be some of the easiest to get over here still, though I think I've occasionally seen FDog in a supermarket.
