Two part beer bucket question??

[delmar60]

My wife and I are on the Liberty in August and I was just wondering if anyone who has been on Carnival lately knows the following prices:

 

What does a bucket of beer cost for the 16oz bottles of beers?

What does a bucket of beer cost for the 12oz cans of beer?

 

Also reviews on the Red Frog Ale would be great as well. Thanks in advance:)

For 16oz alum bottles, you save $2 total when getting a bucket. Price depends on beer chosen of course. On occasion they do a special and take another $1 off.

 

Cans are likely the same discount, although this is just a guess on my part.

 

Red Frog ale was ok, although the hint of lemon/lime/citrus taste isn't for everyone. I saw a keg being moved to a bar; looks like Anheuser-Busch bottles it for Carnival interestingly enough as it was an AB keg.

You guessed correctly. Buckets are two dollars off regardless of the type bought.

I really enoy the Thristy Frog Ale or whatever the heck its called, lol. Its very similar to Rickard's Red if you have ever had that, another one of my personal favorite beers.

Very common for large brewerys to make smaller batches for others. Same as food facilities making different brands using the brands own recipes.

 

FWIW the Red Frog Ale is very drinkable. It is a very good red. Much better than any lawnmower beer onboard.

Sadie, love your reply" lawnmower beer" LOL. Jason, would you say Red Frog is similar to Blue Moon?? jwalk, being a good Canadian boy I love Rickards, their new white is superb!!

Buckets of domestic beer (4/bucket) w/cost you approximately $25 per plus 15% gratuity (Carnival is now selling 16 oz. beer)...not sure what premium foreign stuff w/cost

[Jimmy Geegitz]

Red Frog is nothing like Blue Moon. 2 totally different brews.

I also go for the Fosters. Best deal on the ship.

Whoops...DW just informed me that it is $25.07 for bucket of domestic beer including gratuity (when ship is out of port)...you will have to also pay local us tax while ship is in US port

I agree. Fosters for a bucket of 4 is $28.75 " out the door " including gratuity. That is the equivalent of 8 twelve ounce beers. They are so big they actually come in 2 buckets :D for the 4 drinks

[delmar60]

Thanks people for the advise, just can't stomach Fosters, it poisons my taste buds LOL

:D

OK, I'll bite..:eek: Haveta' know....??;)

 

I do Foster's as its OK enough, and the price is best on the ship..!:p Wish they had Blue..:rolleyes:
