No booze it's a dry country, not even in the hotels.

There is a small percentage of the population that is non Muslim, 5-10%mainly Christians who mostly work in tourism. From what I understand, they drive to the Malay border, which isn't far, cross over and immediately on the other side are outlets that sell liquor. They then bring it back in to Brunei and drink it in the privacy of their own home.
