UT, you can get more expensive beer down here but when its around you just might want to buy a lot of it.

As for picking up things in PR, you buy them at the duty free shops at the airports and bring them on the plane as carry ons. Thats what i've done in the past

lmao.. this guy is too funny

Sorry man, haven't seen those beers here, but I'm not a big beer drinker. Only beers I seen are Bud, corona, amstel lite, red stripe, miller lite, heineken, and my personal favorite - smirnoff ice (jk). Buy the hard stuff at duty free and bring it as a carry on. Doubt you'll find your beers.. don't kno though. But you'll find kabuli to be drinkable if you really like keystone light.. Thinking about it, I can't wait to get back home and have a yuengling.

when i got in trouble, I was told it dated back to a minor upsirsing right after independance. i was also told the dominicans look at us as a large foreign group on the island, and they see military uniforms and they fear that we are a "5th column", a "pre-invasion" force. i laughed, but then again, i have traveled in other parts of the world were camouflage clothes will get you shot, so just getting yelled at isnt all that bad. (they didnt even confiscate them, and i ended up giving them to a Ross security guard who i had befreinded and had hooked me up with good bars, beaches etc that Rossies never know about)

are you serious? did u just list the beast as a beer of choice after describing your standards in beer as "very high and pure"?

list of beers i hate more than the beast:

boddingtons

list of by all accounts crappy beers that i'd drink over the beast and high life:

Natty Light
Pabst
Lone star
red stripe
killians
red dog
colt 45 (yes i know it's a malt liquor, but i've never had it unless i'm trashed, and as far as i know, it's delicious)

in fact, i'd probably rather get drunk off of nyquil that have to deal with the horrible horrible taste of the beast or high life
