A good 98% of all beers consumed in Haiti bear the Prestige label, so you know it canโt be bad. This brew was born and bred in Haiti dating back to the mid-1970โs, and although it has the same light, blonde, refreshing character found in most West Indian lagers, Prestige is different. You see, those other blondes are brewed in accordance with old European traditions, while Prestige tastes more like a typical American beer. So much so, in fact, that it won a gold medal at the 2000 World Beer Cup Awards in the category of โAmerican-Style Lager.โ
