YESS!!! dark and stormy has been my "official" drink for a few years now. I started out using Barritts, but lately been experimenting with different ginger beers. BTW The stuff you get at spanish bodegas is pretty good too. I can't think of the name right now, but I'll get one tomorrow and post it here.

Regatta is the closest you will get to Barritts in the US now, other than my 4 personal cases.

Before you ask, no, none of them are for sale.

You can get Barritts here in the states. I get it at soda distributors and package stores

But why? I don't have a can that isn't directly from Bermuda available at the moment. Down to my last 4 cans of that.

Next thing you'll try to tell us that Gosling's Black Seal isn't available anymore

I'm lucky if I can find the water...

I'll be hauling it back and forth on a monthly basis if it becomes unavailable.

Barritts changed hands not too long ago and they were pulling US distribution. (Where's Karl when you forget the rest of the details?)

Goya is nasty and will burn holes in your mouth. I just figured where you said it was available in bodegas...

Drinking Goya is like drinking Bud Light.
Some things you just don't do.
