ThirstyFrog Red-New Carnival Beer

[Lydia B.]

Just read today in current issue of Food & Wine Magazine that Carnival Magic is going to offer a new Carnival brewed beer, ThirstyFrog Red. Had anyone seen this on other Carnival ships yet? I was just curious, thanks, Lydia

Nope... it's a craft brew to be offered in the Red Frog Pub on the Carnival Magic...

I wish they would start carrying Kalik the Bahamian Beer on all ship!!!!!

Probably not gonna happen. Storage is a huge issue on board and those items that sell best get the space... Don't think Kalik would have that big of a market.

Good news, however, the ships are getting a draught system installed!

That's fantastic! I hope they keep getting closer to a brew pub concept!

Book a cruise on the Magic. I think you'll really like the Red Frog Pub...

You may leave in 108 days, but we cruise in 113. :D

Do you know which ships will be getting the draught system?

We sail the Carnival Magic in October and will spend a fair amount of time in the RedFrog Pub on Promenade (Deck 5). ;)

Is the Red Frog allowing cigarettes? I know Cigars are out, that is a shame.

No smoking in Red Frog as it will have food per Heald.

The deck plans indicate a door from the Red Frog to Promanade and the artistic videos show outdoor seating. Unfortunately that side of the ship is smoking, so it is probably both, albeit the smoking section outside. If you are seated near the door, there may be a cloud invasion every time the door opens. :mad:

Well hate to bust you bubbles, this beer is a contract beer made by Budweiser. Doesn't make it a bad beer. Many companies have large and small breweries manufacture beer cause they lack the facilities. I'm looking forward to trying this beer and pleased that Carnival is stepping up. The world needs more beer! ;)

Tis question may have been answered already, sorry, I'm new here. Not usually a beer drinker but had this beer on the Spirit on the holiday Mexican Riviera cruise and want to buy it at home! Is it so exclusive to Carnival that I can only get it on a cruise? It doesn't hurt to ask!

Thanks.

I thought the red frog beer was pretty good... Even if it is bud-made!

Private label made for Carnival, so only on a Carnival cruise.

I was so excited to try Thirstyfrog when we boarded the Splendor in Dec. Went into the sports bar and ordered 2 in the souvenir glasses and took a couple of drinks and dumped it did not care for it at all.

While I didn't dump mine I won't be ordering another. Too "grainy" tasting for me, reminds me of St. Arnold's from Houston. I'll stick to the hard stuff on a cruise...

I thought it was tasty and I normally don't like beer (much).

Not everyone likes the maltiness of craft brews. I loved St Arnold's when I lived in Houston:) Their LawnMower Ale was great in the summer. Houston's water is perfect for the types of brews they did, so so they told us when they first started.

 

You can buy a similar brw to Thirsty Red Frog if you buy Bud's American Ale or Mich's Amber Bock.

DH drank it a couple of times on the Spirit in October, but thought is was kind of blah, no good aftertaste or body, but then he usually drinks beers he can 'chew', if you know what I mean!

Me and a buddy on our Imagination Cruise in October had about 4-5 of these and were very pleased with them. Can't wait for the 101oz beer tube on our Magic Cruise in August!!!!
