Craft Beer in BVI? - 08/25/2017 07:22 PM
I really enjoy a good IPA. Is there any reasonably priced craft beer options in RT? Other thoughts to get some along the way?

I second Cooper Island. They've been brewing for a couple of years now. All of their brews are tasty. Stopping there is mandatory for us every time we go to the BVI. Great conch fritters too.

Cooper's beers imho are VERY good!
However, they are not HOP bombs of the current fad in the US.

My wife is an IPA fan as well. I always provision a 12 of Island Hoppin IPA (ST. John Brewers) for her to break up the Carib. She seems to like it just fine and it is readily available in RT.
We also enjoyed the beer at Cooper Island, but I don't think you can easily provision it.

Since when do you ask a question?

I'm a die hard IPA fan....I found Island Hoppin to very available in the markets and even on some beach bar taps. Although not quite a "micro" brew, but very drinkable, I found Samual Adams Rebel IPA in great supply down there.... I don't think you can get Cooper Island beer anywhere other than on Cooper and their hours are VERY limited.....we were there too early on our way up to Leverick....cheers

If you go through St. Thomas, you can get Sierra Nevada Torpedo IPA and Oskar Blues IPA in cans at Food Center. They have other products too, but that varies.
Cheers, RickG

I don't know my IPA's (not much of a beer drinker), but on our last trip one of our crew wanted an IPA. We found Tico's to have a few different kinds.
