TravelTalkOnline Forums Travel and Vacation Forums St. Maarten - St. Martin How much is Carib beer at stores?

The SMYC "Happy Hour" is no longer frequented by the cruisers because it really is no longer a cheaper alternative - yet the draw of that last 5PM inward-bound opening remains sufficient to draw in the crowds. Next door at Nowhere Special and the Soggy Dollar still have good deals, as does Lagoonie's on the other side of the lagoon. All of the Chinese markets between the bridge and the airport compete on beer prices. The cheapest one is Sky Market right across from Palapa Marina/Soggy Dollar. I only head into Market Garden when I want something exotic and don't have a car for Carrefour - that place is seriously expensive!
