He is given a drink at Charlie Glides house when talking to him about moving keys stolen from a tuna boat.He orders cafe cubano at the little bar near the begining of SCORE.He's given Champaine (sp?) at McCarthys party when Venessa offers them the drink and says she feels like she's known them for a long time.He put a bottle of something away in the ships cabnet when staking out TONY on the boat in NO EXIT.He tells Gina that he'd have a bottle of DP on ice (dom pernion (sp?) )on his boat and a couple of pounds of cracked crab for thier date before getting his marrige is over letter.

Did anyone get "entire fifth of Jack Daniels" in the episode when Caitlin met her fate? That would be terrible to overlook. Sorry, my ep names are rusty.

He orders cafe cubano at the little bar near the begining of SCORE.

In that particular scene' date=' we see Sonny drinking a kind o transparent drink. What is that? Is that supposed to be served together with the cafe cubano?There's a pic of the scene here (scroll down or find "café cubano"): http://www.miami-vice.ws/vbglossar.php?do=showentry&id=2132

I don´t recall the episode name, but Crockett waits for a middle man at a coffee joint in the street he orders " un cafecito por favor" the the guy shows up pulls a gun, Crockett disarms him and shoves his face in the counter as he drinks the cafecito with the other hand and then leaves. All I remember is that it is a season 3 episodee. Perhaps red tape.F - man help me out here.

I don't know if I ever saw Sonny drink it, but I definitely saw some Miller High Life bottles in the series!  I'm a Miller guy myself!  But Lowenbrau is good.  I also like Peroni, but it is expensive!  I thought Sonny might go for an Italian beer like Peroni, to go with the Italian fashion and car!

Hey AndrewRemington, you reminded me.  Back in 1980s Lowenbrau was my beer of choice.  And when I was drinking shots of whiskey Canadian Crown Royal was the only one for me. Oh, such sweet memories.

It seems like Lowenbrau was quite popular in the 80s!  I've never tried Canadian Crown Royal.  I did buy a bottle of black Jack Daniel's earlier this year, though!

I drank Lowenbrau back in the day also, and Vice was definitely my inspiration.  Though by then I had developed a taste for Gin, specifically Tanqueray with a lime twist. 

Think that may be my drink of choice tonight with a few Eps of Vice on the blu-ray.

I am sure Lowenbrau was the main beer they drank in 'To Live And Die In LA' as well, classic 80s movie.

Lowenbrau was one of the few imports you could get in those days, actually. At least in common circulation.

According to Wikipedia it was a domestic beer after 1977:

"In 1975, Miller Brewing acquired the North American rights to Löwenbräu. After two years of exports, Miller began brewing Löwenbräu domestically with an Americanized recipe, and exports of Munich Löwenbräu to North America ceased."

It was presented at the time as a mock import at least. I remember the ads and drank it at the time and it wasn’t branded as domestic. Miller may have been brewing it in the US but they didn’t market it that way as I recall. 

Oh, yeah. Sonny pulls a Coors out of Leon’s fridge in the pilot.
