sonnylax Posted July 15, 2010 #1 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Cruising next week on the Inspiration to Cozumel. I assume Carnival still does buckets of beer on board? I assume it's aluminum cans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alliezona09 Posted July 15, 2010 #2 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Yes they do have buckets of beer, price is around $20 plus tip, but some of their beer comes in plastic bottles like Miller Lite for instance~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessemon Posted July 15, 2010 #3 Share Posted July 15, 2010 4-16oz in aluminiun or plastic bottles for about $21....or so..... If they happen to have 12oz cans it is cheaper... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank12 Posted July 15, 2010 #6 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Wish they had Bud Light Lime :) Just off the Inspiration. You're in luck! They were selling Bud Light Lime by the bucket in 16 oz aluminum bottles. The only 12 oz cans they had were regular Budweiser. Fascination had Bud and Bud Light in May .

FlaGrl4Evr Posted July 15, 2010 #7 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Can you buy the bucket-o-beer with any brand of beer in it? For example; Heinekin Light? Thank-you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sscottcruiser Posted July 15, 2010 #8 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Can you buy the bucket-o-beer with any brand of beer in it? For example; Heinekin Light? Thank-you. Just off the Valor last week and yes, you could buy a bucket of any beer they had for two dollars off the price of buying 4 separately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got 2 Amstel Lights and DW got 2 Bud Light Limes in the same bucket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RatedRDP Posted July 15, 2010 #11 Share Posted July 15, 2010 I have read that you can get Corona in a bucket. I have also read that Carnival does not allow customers to possess glass bottles and that they pour it into a plastic cup, but I have never seen plastic or aluminum bottles for Corona. Am I missing a station on the logic train? How does a bucket of Corona work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonnylax Posted July 15, 2010 Author #12 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Can anyone who has been on Carnival Inspiration out of Tampa in the last few weeks verify the offerings in aluminum or plastic? Trying to bring my own stash on board somehow and match up exactly with what the boat is selling. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off the top of my head : 16 oz aluminum bottles were Bud, Bud Light, Bud Light Lime, Michelob Ultra. Miller Light was 16oz. plastic bottles. 12 oz cans was Budweiser and Amstel Light. Fosters comes in the big "oil cans". That's all I can remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the Valor they also had Heineken in cans and bottles of Stella Artois, Pilsner Urquell, Corona, and a couple of other imports as well. They also had Blue Moon but I can't remember if it was in a bottle or can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a bucket of Stellas left in the bottle a few times so I guess it depends on which bar on which ship as far as the plastic cup rule goes.

Only time I've had the plastic cup rule enforced was when I was either going into the pool and to the hot tub. The obvious reason is they don't want a chance of getting glass into the true pool area, not so much in the general pool area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally they will pour it in cups.....and sometimes plastic bottle thingies...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do that they will charge you for 4 of the higher price beers...... Just make sure they are all the same price......we found that out when we ordered on the Glory.......

sonnylax Posted July 15, 2010 Author #23 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Smuggling beer through carry on or checked baggage?? I know they x-ray some (or most) checked baggage and will confiscate if they find it and call you down to the naughty room. I know they will x-ray your carry-on stuff as well. But I've had great success 2 or 3 times in the last 5 years rolling on beer as carry-on luggage. Guess it's just hit or miss with the port security? Is TSA (Dept. of Homeland Security) doing security at the ports these days? Or is it still up to the individual ports to handle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will make them go flatter than a pancake.:mad: Oh no, this will not do. I can understand doing that if you order one at a time. However, there is no point or incentive to getting the bucket. By the time you finish the second, the other two will be flat. Disappointing. Looks like it is Bud Fright for me. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madera cruiser Posted July 16, 2010 #25 Share Posted July 16, 2010 That will make them go flatter than a pancake.:mad: Had Dos XX, and Corona on the Paradise. They came in plastic cups. I never had a problem with them going flat. Maybe I just drink them fast?.... just sayin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
