Toto2Kansas Posted July 19, 2011 #2 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Many do carry it on, but if you are asking if it is on the list for approved alcohol that passengers can carry onboard, no, only champange and wine are actually allowed to be carried onboard per the cruise line rules.

NSWP Posted July 19, 2011 #4 Share Posted July 19, 2011 I am leaving from brooklyn on CB. I am trying to remember if I read it would be ok to bring beer on board with us. My Mich ultra is not on the ship. Can someone let me know? I have taken a six pack or two on board, after port visits, but only after getting the OK from Gangway Security Staff as I leave the ship. At the end of the day, it is the Gangway Security Staff who enforce the Alcohol policy, one way or the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adventures ahead Posted July 19, 2011 #7 Share Posted July 19, 2011 We had a six-pack in our checked bag on embarkation day for a long cruise. No problem. Also bought some on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSWP Posted July 20, 2011 #8 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Not in every port, so don't get too confident. I know that Pia, if they say NO to beer when I leave the ship, I don't bring it back. Anyway these days it would be Gluten Free beer and they don't stock it in Princess ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 HappyCruiser Posted July 20, 2011 #9 Share Posted July 20, 2011 It's one of those rules that most Princess cruises just ignore & get by with it since enforcement is almost non existent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Putterdude Posted July 20, 2011 #10 Share Posted July 20, 2011 I often bring a 6 pack aboard in checked luggage and in carry on in various ports...no problem so far but there is always a risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toto2Kansas Posted July 20, 2011 #11 Share Posted July 20, 2011 NSWP-Someone from our upcoming roll call contacted Princess about a gluten free diet, and this is a section of their response received about GF beer, for those interested. 'Gluten-free beer and gluten-free vodka are available for purchase by pre-order only and may only be consumed while onboard ship. The bottles cannot be taken off the vessel in any port. We offer Redbridge gluten-free beer by the case only (24 bottles) and LiV vodka. Please advise if you would like to pre-order as we require 21 days advance notice to fulfill beer orders and 30 days advance notice for vodka orders. Product branding is subject to change as per market availability.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balconybird Posted January 24, 2013 #12 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Has anyone ordered the Redbridge GF beer for on board consumption? Can you drink it anywhere or just in your cabin / balcony. It seems worth doing if you can take it to any of the public areas but not sure otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drank it around the ship, only queried once by a barman, but once I told me it was a GF as I am a coeliac and hte beer was supplied by Princess, paid for by me on my shipboard a/c, no problem.

I contacted Princess precruise and it was delivered to my cabin, I paid for it via my on board a/c. I drank it around the ship as they do not stock GF beer on Princess Ships. Redbridge, not the best, but drinkable. If you are challenged by staff in the lounges/bars, just explain it was provided by Princess at your cost, no problems. Enjoy !
