I vote for one of those Red Stripes - served on a warm Jamaican beach. Sounds good right about now!

John, thanks for the correct spelling of "Hairoun" and the bit of history. My mother is a Vincy but I have never been - shameful, I know. I hope to change that soon and will definetly ask for a Hairoun when I get there.

How about Piton in St. Lucia or Prestige in Haiti?<BR>Several years ago, I had &quot;Soca&quot; and &quot;Amstel Bright&quot; (that's right, Bright, not Light) in St. Martin and haven't been able to find either one since. Has anyone else come across these two?

I really enjoyed Banks Beer while in Barbados. I tried Pitons Beer in St Lucia, but didn't care for it at all!

To Johnno: we were recently in Curacao and we drank a few Amstel Brights there. it's a long way to go but thought you might like to know where to find them again.
