NICE! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/toast.gif" alt="" /> Hope you had a good visit with your son <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/usflag.gif" alt="" /> enjoy the beach! We had our daughters H.S. grad party this weekend...smoked a 110lb pig and I had a large assortment of beer for the gang, some asked for Presidente, but would you believe that Natty Boh's were the most popular! Had I known I could have saved a lot of money at $14-30 pack <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" /> Oh Boy What A Beer!!! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" />
We have 7 loooong weeks to wait, your reports will help us through! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Cheers.gif" alt="" />

Good find <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Cheers.gif" alt="" /> I haven't found it in Virginia, but I know where to get it in Maryland. I met a man at Scrub Island who was from the Dominican Republic, he said the Presidente's that we drink outside of the DR are "not the same" in taste. I MUST go to the DR to taste a fresh Presidente! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/toast.gif" alt="" />

There are several beers that are different- the St Kitts Carib comes in a brown bottle and is totally different from the Trini Carib. Someone said it has to do with preservatives for shipping?

BEERMAN,
I did my homework. The distributor in VA that has the rights to Presidente is Premium Distributors. They have made a decision not to carry the beer in our state (pardon me Commonwealth). Give them a call and scream WTF! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" /> I put it on my calendar for tomorrow.
Premium Distributors of Virginia, L.L.C. 15001 Northridge Drive Chantilly, VA 20151 Phone: 703-227-1200
I call on VA citizens to dial this number tomorrow and scream:
We are mad as hell and we want Presidente!
