5 for 4 Beer

[RBAlbany]

Haven't seen this specific question yet. Probably will be drinking mostly beer on our next cruise. Taking advantage of current sale I now have $200 OBC. The 5 for 4 that can be purchased before hand; is it available while you are cruising. I never thought of asking or checking before. Thanks.

Yes, you can purchase that on board at the bars. Just make sure you ask them not to open them all at once.

[voljeep]

yes - both before and during...

 

Pro-Tip - if it's just you drinking the beer(s), maybe think about taking a small soft sided cooler to put them in instead of the bucket so the ice last longer...

 

and make sure the cooler is long enough to hold the 16oz aluminum bottles if that's yor thing...

 

and a bottle opener...;p

[fishywood]

Yes, from either the Lido deck pool bars or from room service.

I am thinking of buying the 5 for 4 Beers...my question is if i pre order them...and they deliver them to the room, do they supply you with a bottle opener? As i do not want to chance bringing a bottle opener from home for security reasons?

[belmontcrew]

I have a question as well...on the ship is the 5 for 4 only on Bud and Heineken as it shows to pre-purchase or can I get Blue Moon?

If you are getting those giant cans of Bud aren't they screw tops? As for a bottle opener I have a bottle opener and a corkscrew that live in my travel kit. Never had a problem.

Yes.

 

It is corkscrews with the 3/4 inch foil cutter that with hold you up in security. No foil cutter - No problem

I have actually flown and sailed a number of times with a huge Swiss Army Knife I had from long ago. I always took it camping and it was in my bag of bathroom stuff (Dopp Kit). I was never questioned or hassled in any way. Obviously it was in my checked luggage. I have since removed it from my stuff but i did fly with it and had it on cruises maybe 6 times or so.

Also Dos Equis I hope. Thank you all for your replies and suggestions. I think I have figured out how to use my OBC!! The cruise is an 11-day Mediterranean cruise that is port intensive. The traditional drink package just doesn't seem worth it.

[Thrak]

In addition to ordering at any bar you can also order the 5 for 4 beer package from Room Service. As you can see there are multiple beers available.

 

[Jimmy Geegitz]

Once you get onboard any of the beers they serve in bottles or cans can be purchased 5 for 4. Bringing a bottle opener is no problem. I also bring a soft cooler. The ice melts fast in the plastic buckets.

[IECalCruiser]

Yes.

Have not a problem with corkscrews with foils cutters with Princess security, but one time I mistakenly packed one in a carry on bag and it ended up in the garbage at the security line in LAX [emoji22]

Yes airport security. In practice, Princess stops very little.

Nope. I stole them from the rowboat. They have the official Rowboat logo on them. :cool:

 

In truth the corkscrew was a freebie from BevMo and the bottle opener is probably 50 years old and was a freebie from a grocery store or somewhere like that. Surely you can remember when every grocery store gave out free bottle openers and every hardware store gave out free yard sticks? Just about anywhere you went gave out free books of matches. Oh, free fly swatters too. ;)

See Post #11 for the list of what is available on board.

[tanyaewa]

Can anyone tell me what is the cost in US $ for the 4 for 5 buckets?

 

I have the price in CDN in my cruiseplanner but would like to know if it’s better to buy ahead in CDN or wait and pay onboard in US where my credit card would add the exchange

 

Heineken and dos equis are $30.36

Budweiser is $34.50

Bud Light is $31.74

 

TIA!

I always laugh when I see these replies. I remember flying out to San Diego (business) back about 3 months after 9/11. I had ALWAYS had a P-38 (small GI can opener for the old C Rations) about an inch and a half long. They made me take it off my key chain and deposit it in the box.

 

I told the TSA Guy - "I've had that thing since Viet Nam!". Made no difference. Guess he thought I might take over a plane with an inch and a half can opener. :D

[tanyaewa]

Figured out that if I went into private browsing it defaulted to US pricing

Actually the Budweiser and Bud Light are not screw top. (my DH's usual). Miller Light and Coors Light are screw top.

 

We carry a simple bottle opener with us always.

so....i thought the cabins have a mini fridge and if so, why not just put the drinks in the fridge insread of worrying about ice buckets and coolers?

We purchase the package for our room. They bring the bucket of beer unopened and we just put it in the fridge. And Yes they bring a bottle opener to leave in the cabin!
