They were happy to serve Krug to all F & J passengers whilst in the onboard lounge a couple of weeks ago.

So you mean that you have to prove you are in first to get Krug in the lounge? Sounds strange

He/she wrote the original post, so might just be aware of it, despite dropping the word onboard in post #4.

Update

Recently traveled on QR2 (LHR-DOH) and yes, the upper deck lounge staff are most happy to serve the aforementioned beverage to their premium cabin customers.

In fact the one of the crews use Krug to successfully lure I and my partner to the bar. Not only Krug is served, but also are red wine and white wine from F at the bar. Enjoy!

I flew OSL-DOH (787), DOH-BKK (380) about a month ago, and they served Krug as the champagne in business on the OSL-DOH stretch (Billecart-Salmon listed, but not served, didn't ask why, maybe they were out. They were out of the port on this flight).
Was served the Billecart-Salmon on the 380 DOH-BKK, did not check the lounge.

I'm actually flying QR40 from CDG to DOH on A380, posting this message thanx to the 15 minutes free WiFi, sitting in economy class on upper deck : no more champagne in economy (the FA told me they canceled it : does that mean for all QR flights ?), but a lot of Krug flowing at the bar as per the number of bottles I can see coming from the back of upper deck to the bar :-)
