This cracks me up. i used to go to Las Vegas every couple of months and stay at the golden nugget downtown. They had a world beer bar that featured beers from all around the world in bottles for $2.00 each. I would try all kinds of beers from Bass ale to Stella Artois, but every time I was at the bar someone would always come up and say "what kind of beer do you have?" and then almost everytime they would order bud light! go figure.
It's funny - when I lived in Germany the military liquor stores and the local stores sold the finest wines that money could buy from every region. The biggest seller --- TJ Swann Mellow Nights.
I don't remember ever seeing a US beer in Bonaire. Lots of great stuff there though. The Brights are always a favorite probably because you can't get them here. We always bring back a couple of cases for our post trip parties. Unfortunately the Amstel products are not made in Curacao anymore. They dismantled the brewery there and sold the parts.
Personally I like Belashi on draft. But - I also like Polar, even if it does mean supporting Hugo's economy.

So what do we do to 
thread posters anyway? Well, this is too much fun.
Our 750 is a metric compromise to our traditional fifth, which was adopted in WWII as a 20% reduction from a commonly purchased quart. Seemed like an easy way to ask the US drinkers to allow more grain to be used for the war effort. I don't rember why they went with 700?
thread posters anyway? Well, this is too much fun. Funny things happen. We can't get most European wines as the standard bottle size over there is now 700 ml, while our laws require 750 for import, so only bottles produced for US export make it.
