truecruiser Posted March 18, 2009 #6 Share Posted March 18, 2009 but, i do think they stop serving some of the cans when they leave port. for example, i think they stop serving the 12 oz coors light at sailaway and start serving the 16 oz plastic bottles. but i haven't been a coors light drinker in awhile so i don't know if this is still the practice. [and my, oh my, there seems to be a lot of beer threads today, but impt to note: all of which were started by others lol.:p] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mumsykat Posted March 18, 2009 #7 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Well... this may be an exception, but the only cruise I've been on to date was with the Sterling Marlin fanclub - for those of you who are not familiar with NASCAR, Sterling for many years was the driver of the #40 Coors Light Silver Bullet car. And believe me, there were PLENTY of cold Coors cans available. My DH and I still laugh about our bar bill - BEER BUCKET, BEER BUCKET, BEER BUCKET, BEER BUCKET.....:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare crewsweeper Posted March 18, 2009 #11 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Just bring a koozee that fits over your can or buy a DOTD and use the "souvenier" cup to pour your beer in in your room before going on deck. You can bring in craft beers like Dales Pale Ale that way. If you're going to drink big beer, and don't want to pay cruise prices, buy the brands in the pic in plastic bottles.

FantasyLineAddict Posted March 18, 2009 #12 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Bring or buy a mug in the Carnival gift shop and refill in your cabin. We buy 6-pack cans of beer in every port too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yst347 Posted March 18, 2009 #13 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Once you have your smuggled goods on board, no one cares how you consume it. You can drink your smuggled beer in your Lido lounger in plain sight. Just don't bring glass bottles or glass containers on the Lido deck. You do not need to bring or buy a mug. If you want to bring or buy a mug that is your choice. You can ask for a beer glass at any bar or ask for a plastic cup at a Lido bar. A tip would be nice. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisinCLT Posted March 18, 2009 #16 Share Posted March 18, 2009 we drank cans of miller light and budlight all cruise long and no one said anything! sometimes they had drink koozies and sometimes they didn't. nobody cares. we were sitting right by carnival employees on the lido deck and pulled them right out of our coolers. get whatever beer you like and you'll be fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caliber1 Posted March 18, 2009 #18 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Where do I purchase plastic beer bottles? Down here it's hit or miss, some stores have them and some don't. I would think any larger liqouur store would have them. I found DW some Lite last cruise, but I just pack the regular Coors cans and have never had a problem. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thirsty Cruiser Posted March 18, 2009 #19 Share Posted March 18, 2009 at any bar. LMAO! Yst is absolutely correct. No need to hide it, they really don't care once on board. Keep the glass off of lido and personally I wouldn't set my own down on a bar, but otherwise don't sweat it. Of course, you can always buy any of the better beers they have and bring it with you: Guinness, Bodd's, Bass, Pils Urquell all are readily available at any beer supplier in cans/bottles.

Bob NC Posted March 18, 2009 #20 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Nobody cares what you are drinking. We took 2 and a half cases of Bud Light cans. I'd carry a bucket full of them from my cabin to the Lido deck and the waiters would fill me up with ice when I ran low. Really, nobody will give you a second look.

extcat Posted March 18, 2009 Author #21 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Thanks to all. Coors light or Labatts blue will do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thirsty Cruiser Posted March 18, 2009 #22 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Thanks to all. Coors light or Labatts blue will do. They are not bad, but give Pilsner Urquell or Boddington's a try. They are both on the light side, but with so much more flavor. Pilsner Urquell is a Czech style lager that American Pilsners are styled after, but so much better. Boddington's is an English ale, but nitro-charged for less fizz and a smooth taste (no carbonic bite). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to agree with you....I'm not a fan of Boddington's during my daily drankin' but in the sun on the Lido during a sea day :) I'ts pretty darn close to perfection. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drink it mainly because it's the least undesirable of the beers that Carnival offers. Another option for the heat is a black and tan using Bud Light *cringe* instead of Bass. Really not a bad trade-off, and drinkability is awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
