Hi SXM gurus. Long time forum viewer, first time poster so be nice

I know there is no shortage of beer selection available, but for personal reasons I am wondering if anyone has seen Corona Premiere, specifically on the island yet. Not Corona Light.

Any luck?

Thanks in advance.

I personally have not seen it on island but I drink Carib or Presidente while on island.

Nope. Never seen it here. Most common flavors I see around town are...
* Corona / Coranita
* Coors Light
* Heineken (Hkn Zero too)
* Carib
* Presidente
* Old Milwalke (Prime Distributors)
* plus a range of other independents and local brews.

...not to say it doesn't exist here, I've just never seen it in my 6+ years here.

I'm a fan of Corona Premier myself, and more often than not the spot on the shelf where it should be here at home is empty as it's quite popular. I also looked for it in several spots in SXM the last couple of trips with no luck. Premier is a light and tasty low carb beer, and I think the closest thing you'll find to it on the island IMHO is Amstel Bright. Sun, sand and a lime slice really go along well with it.

Cheers!

Thanks everyone.

Thanks @gomer36! Have you seen seltzers that are low carb? Anyone seen Heineken Silver?

Amstel Bright is not a lite beer, although many assume it is.

Thats my jam as well but can't wait for those buckets of Presidente's in 25 days.

you can definitely find hard seltzers….but when i was there this past dec/jan, they were pretty expensive at the Carrefour next to Princess casino…almost 3x price in the US…i think a 12 pack of White Claw was ~$30 usd

Most US wines and beers are more expensive on island. At least that has been my observation.

not my experience with beer at all,..i only drink light beer, Mich Ultra, Miller, or Coors, and the prices down there in the supermarkets is practically the same i pay here…and in many bars, it’s actually cheaper down there

Me too. I hope to try some Modelo Oro at the biergarten in Maho tomorrow night.

Modelo Oro is another great low carb option! Sounds like you have actually seen it on island @WWII?

I haven't, but I'm hoping it is.

actually i normally bring a case or two of light beer down with me to "be prepared", but mainly to take on to St. Barth...finding bottled light beer in SXM is not hard, but cans (especially 12, not 10 oz cans) may not be found as readily...post covid, finding light beer on SBH has become more difficult
