it depends where do you go. If you want to sit in central point of the city in Spain, you will pay probably around 2 euros for beer.
and around 3 euros in Barcelona for 0,33 L.
but usually 0,33 L beer is 2 euros in Barca or 1-1,5 euros in some normal average bar in places like Granada, Malaga, Alicante etc.
with 1 eur= 1 usd Europe is CHEAP now ! if you earn in USD of course....And I would say that food in supermarkets - in Spain, Poland, Germany, Czech Republic, Netherlands...is cheaper than in DR
like many other things.....you can rent apartment in Spain for around 300-350 euros, few kms from the beach....
and you know that what is "standard" in Europe - here in DR it is a "luxury". like working electricity, water, internet, good food, cheap beer, wine etc.
bottle of DECENT/ GOOD wine in supermarket in Spain is around 2 - 3 euros... which is... 130 pesos ?
the only drinkable wine under 200 pesos here in DR is Santo Tomas from Chile, which is 190 pesos in LT.

Last time I was in NYC, 12oz Presidentes were $5 a bottle. I had one for nostalgia, but then switched to my usual Yuengling..
They are $2 in my corner bodega son.
You can get a six pack for $9.99 in Brooklyn.
Am I the only one on DR1 without a "team". . .I'm sorry Ollie. . .
I heard that Lazy Dog has a spot in pueblo de pescadoras now. That is more american style. One love is canadian which is close enough.
If I was retired I would think about doing a BBQ joint up there.
I may need to head up for a few days in May. It has been a while. . . .
What kind of personal info do want? I.ve been using that bar for years, the bar that was there , for a long time it was operated by Flavio. I used to enjoy going there, sitting down with an 80peso beer looking at the waves, occasionally getting chatted up by a chica looking for customers, in practice just having nice half hour relax on the way home together with deep sea air breathing. Only occasionally was the music overpowering.
I went to a beach bar in Cabarete many years ago.
It was called "LAX".
Great place, great location, great food!
Is it still there????????
