mimireese Posted September 27, 2014 #26 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Medalla In PR, Or Kalik in the Bahamas -- Both have unique taste, which reminds I have to drink the Kalik I brought home from my last cruise:D Can you bring back local beer? Or were you "sneaky" about it? LOL! My husband loved Kalik while we were in the Bahamas too and you can not find it here. Was just curious if he finds something on our cruise next week that he would like to bring back if it is possible. Thanks for any info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Sneaky" LOL..They just happened to wind up in my backpack, and back on the ship. There was not flight involved so that made it easy... Enjoy your cruise and the Kalik next week.:D I Have a few more weeks to wait:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeguy07 Posted April 4, 2015 #29 Share Posted April 4, 2015 If traveling I just want something fun and new. It my not be my favorite each time but it is fun to try. Plus in that tropical heat you don't want a heavy or strong beer on the beach. RCI does have the racer 5 a nice ipa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travelingla Posted April 7, 2015 #30 Share Posted April 7, 2015 I'm trying to figure out what beers to try on our cruise next month. We're going to Columbia, Aruba, St Maarten, St Thomas, and Curacao. Are there local beers that are really outstanding?I'm from the beer capital of the northwest (Central Oregon) and also homebrew. I don't care for lagers but if it's 90 degrees plus with high humidity, I suppose I could choke one down. What would your choices be? Best beer ever! Desperado at Sunset Grill in ST Marrtin -- surely you can find it elsewhere too -- it has tequila in it and is so very good:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shak Posted April 7, 2015 #31 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Best beer ever! Desperado at Sunset Grill in ST Marrtin -- surely you can find it elsewhere too -- it has tequila in it and is so very good:D That is an interesting beer. I'll have to look for it locally. As I see it Desperado is not a Caribbean beer, but a French beer owned by Heineken. Being a French beer is maybe why it is on St Maarten.

Langham1865 Posted April 29, 2015 #32 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Dare I ask...is there any dark or flavoured beers in the carribean? We are going to Grand Cayman and would like something more than a weak lager/beer type thing. Try Caybrew... Brewed on Grand Cayman... they do a stout. You can even do a brewery tour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicNMe Posted April 30, 2015 #33 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Tried a beer brewed with mango on an eastern caarriben run once, I think it might have been http://www.stjohnbrewers.com/beers.html this one? I remember it pretty distinctly because I had it at the 'home of the daiquiri' on St. Maaarten and my family made fun of me for skipping the plastic cup cocktails to try a fruity micro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallsn3961 Posted May 12, 2015 #34 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Sands or High Rock in the Bahamas. Red Stripe in Jamaica... literally the only place you can haggle on beer prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperdudeAbides Posted December 7, 2015 #36 Share Posted December 7, 2015 In Puerto Rico you actually have some other choices besides the Medalla Light. (Not that Medalla is not fricking awesome cause it is) There's Boquerón Brewing Co. They have very nice Blonde, Pale and Autumn ale and a nice Coffee porter and others.... There is also Old Harbor Brewery not far from where the cruise ships dock. They brew in house and it's very tasty. Look em up. (Ya know if you like craft brew) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crewsweeper Posted December 22, 2016 #37 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Unfortunately, I hear Old Harbor Brewery in OSJ has closed.:( For Grand Turk, Turks head is about all you can get. Amber is pretty good and has 6% alcohol. The Lager at 4.5% alcohol is similar to Kalik. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
