Your Favorite Beer That's Available On A Royal Ship?

[Ret MP]

There's a thread going on right now that talks about Foster's Beer.  That made me think that it might be a good idea to see what people drink on a Royal Ship.  Might give me some ideas for future choices.  Here's mine:

 

Domestic =  Yuengling Lager, Ice Cold Draft, if not available on draft, in the bottle will do

Import = German Weissenbier (any brand will do)

 

I love beer, did I mention that I love beer.  If not, I love beer.  Really dislike IPA though.

None.  Their beer program is atrocious.

On the rocks?  Gross.

The main beer menu is like that of a college town bar.

 

Some of the specialty bars have solid lineups though.

Is vodka considered a beer?

Ummmmmm, let me think........................ No, I don't think so.  But, I like how you think.  I like me a Harvey Wallbanger.

I like a good hazy IPA, or a Belgian Saison. Small batch craft beer with a 7% or 8% alcohol content and a mid-range IBU (or lower). Don't think those are options on the ship though.

Probably not!  

 

I wish Royal had Ice House 8%.  It's actually my favorite domestic beer.  But, it's hard to find.  My local Army Post Exchange has it on occasion.  They only get a case or two in at a time.  It's so popular, it's gone in  minutes, here!

Hazy IPAs are becoming more and more common. Not many mass produced saisons out there though.

What beer isn't gone in minutes on an army base though?

I ain't the Army it used to be.  And it's a National Guard Base, it's not a full time post.  It's just that the idiots that run the PX, which is much smaller than a 7-11, don't understand how to stock items that sell out!

When cruising I like: -

Michelob Ultra

Peroni 

[Bailey & Sophie]

 

My husband likes Groelsh or however it's spelled. It's Dutch. He has found it in some of the smaller bars.

RCL has discontinued the 16 oz Miller Lite in aluminium cans which was my favorite.

The Floridian at the sports bar on the Oasis.

Tried that at Universal Studios at the Harry Potter train station. Not a fan @grapau27

The one and only, Newcastle Brown Ale 🍺 

 

Actually got it stocked in the SL on our last Symphony cruise. The concierge earned a nice gratuity 😁

Corona or Stella

I wish RC would brew their own beer on board like a couple Carnival ships do.
