I think El Flow is one of the best things happening on the strip, drinks are half the price of the other establishments, I get to introduce myself to twice as many chicas............:bunny::bunny:

Not only is El Flow prospering but I was talking to the owner last week and he is buying the X Bar and turning it into a disco with lower priced alcohol. he will close El Flow earlier and have the people head over to the new disco, At least thats what his plans are. Very nice guy by the way.
When I was in Sosua last April I spoke with a beach bar owner about El Flow and why beer there was much cheaper than other bars on the strip and elsewhere in town. There always was a good crowd in the late afternoons. I asked why other bar owners don't follow suit to drum up business. I was told that the owner of El Flow is able to buy his beer at a lower wholesale rate and his tax payment on his purchases are much less than what other bar owners pay. Does any of that sound right? Do you think somebody is getting a cut of the action from El Flow? Or is it just a bunch of bs from the competition? Whatever, I'll be there this Friday as I make my 5th trip to the DR. Sounds like El Flow has a solid " business model". I'll be happy to keep an extra 50 pesos in my pocket at all times.
is there a benefit to it being a colmado rather than a bar ? and is this the reason for the paper bag lol - like in the uk where people tried getting around alcohol laws by giving away a beer with a very expensive bag of peanuts

El Flow is definitely a great place...you can buy alcohol to go after hours...drinks are cheap, allows plenty of space and breathability to interact w/ the locals instead of being in a club atmosphere with a lot of noise...
