I suggested that's a catering issue and (being cynical) maybe there's an idea at UA that there's a cost saving in not catering too many of them because that "idiot from Maui" and like-minded 1K/GS Mulers are the only ones drinking them (and for 'free' at that).
Us Mulers have to stick together! I asked for an Oktoberfest with my coach-burger last trip, so didn't experience any new rules. But I'll be sure to request a Mule on next month's flights. Perhaps an email in to 1K Voice is called for?
