The Post article details Hillary Clinton’s night of partying at a Cuban-themed club in Cartegena during the scandal-plagued Summit of the Americas.

Photos snapped by surprised onlookers show the former first lady swilling a Colombian-brewed Aguila (“Eagle’’) cerveza straight from the bottle and hitting the dance floor.

Witnesses said Clinton played maracas and danced the rumba to three songs played by the club’s Cuba-centric house band.

In all, Clinton’s party ordered a dozen beers, two shots and bottles of water. They left their waiter a $40 tip.

Twitter reactions to the New York Post front page were mixed.

NYPost front page picture of "Swillary" Clinton is brutally unfair. She drank a beer at a summit meeting event. So what???
