- I had the opportunity to spend 2 weeks in P.R. with a friend last summer,
- and found Medalla to be terrible. Most places seem to only carry Medalla,
- and if you are lucky, might have the Bud/Coors type beers mentioned above.
- Medalla is very similar to Coors (Extra Gold), and much to my displeasure,
- is only available in cans it would seem.
-
- If you have to chance to visit P.R., do so, it was amazing. I suggest,
- however, that you stick to the Pina Coladas! I also took a liking to
- Cuba Libre's (Rum and Coke) when served with DQ amber rum.
-
- PS- I was also quite confused that no one served Red Stripe beer. In one
- place they seemed to have had never heard of it, even though it is
- brewed nearby in Jamica.
