Stopped into the Admirals Club in MIA on Saturday night for the Krug experience. The AC is prominently featuring it for sale at the bar (as displayed below). I wasn't the only one imbibing Krug — spotted James Asquith polishing off a bottle as well. #slammertime

I don't care who this guy is or what's his claim to fame, this is crass.

Folks — some levity here. He wasn’t literally chugging the bottle 🙄. It was a staged moment. There is a reason why he has 1.2 million+ followers on IG. They want this kind of content.

People with low self-esteem will do anything to bring attention to themselves.... "look at me! look at me!"

I’d do it. And certainly not for the ‘gram as I don’t even have one, but because I want that Krug down my gullet.

Of course now that AA has decided to offer actual glasses I don’t really see the point of drinking it from the bottle, but I’d take the bottle over the plastic crAAp any day.

Had a nice bottle of Krug at the D30 MIA AC this evening with Mrs. Taxatty. I spoke with the former MIA Flagship Lounge manager who was at the AC bar, who mentioned that of the several hundred bottles originally brought over to the AC from the Flagship Lounge last year--about 35 are left. Better hurry!

Raul estimated 2 months of supply in late December... that's some right fine marksmanship!

I just enjoyed some Krug at the LAX AC a few days ago; as long as ACs continue to stock it, I'll happily partake each trip.

As of this past Tuesday, the MIA AC is out of Krug (I was there yesterday and asked for it, and this is what a bartender told me) .

LAX AC still has some (minus the bottle I purchased and enjoyed this afternoon ).

Sad! I'm passing through MIA on a short connection Monday and was going to liven things up with one last bottle. Guess it's back to the Centurion with me. Might stop by DFW D on Sunday a.m. if I get there early enough (10:40 a.m. flight).

Will do. If they're down to the last few bottles, I can hide one in a potted plant like we used to hide the drink chits.

The DFW C Club had a few bottles in the fridge on Friday night.
