Since you guys seem to always have a solution....figured I would give it a try.
Trying to get a few cases of Kalik Beer from the Bahamas up here to Ohio. I can't find anyplace around that ships or sells it except one place that wants $48 for a 12 pack!!!!.
So......Anybody headed to the Bahamas soon and could bring/ship it back to/for me?
Thanks!!!!!!

Re: Kalik Beer - To Ohio?
I can't buy it here in Michigan and I have a retail license. There are no distributors here that carry it.

Re: Kalik Beer - To Ohio?
What's special about it and what does it sell for in the Bahamas? I'll be leaving Nassau in early May aboard a big Burger Yacht for a delivery to New York. If Kalik is that good I'll be sure to have a few cases brought aboard.

Re: Kalik Beer - To Ohio?
Kalik is the "Beer of the Bahamas", or basically like Budweiser is to the U.S. . It somes in three strengths: Kalik Light, Kalik and Kalik Gold. I usually bring a case back with me each time I return home but the prices down there have crept up quite a bit over the years. I used to pay around $34/case but it cost over $40/case for Kalik Gold the last couple of times that I brought some home. If it can be bought for $32 anywhere in the U.S. it is cheaper than you can buy it in the Bahamas. Every time I pop one open at home it reminds me of blue water even when it is nowhere near!

Re: Kalik Beer - To Ohio?
A lot of people like Kalik; I'm just not one of them. I didn't find anything special about it, except that if you run out of good beer in the Bahamas, it might be all you can buy. If you like stuff like Budweiser, Coors, Corona, etc. then you'll probably like Kalik - it's fairly "light". It's readily available here in Miami. I tried to develop a liking for it because it's what's readily available in the bars over there, but instead, I only convinced myself to take PLENTY of my own beer with me to the Bahamas. My opinion is probably a bit jaded since I like pale ales, IPAs, and homebrews. So, when in the Bahamas and I run out of beer (God forbid!!!), then it's time for dark rum or more champagne.

Re: Kalik Beer - To Ohio?
Not sure if this helps but kalik is available across the border at the Liquor Control Board of Ontario. Most of the bigger stores have it and all can order it on short notice. Price is around $45.00 a case.
