bucket of beer prices

[schultz]

OK I know this has been asked many times but I can't find a recent thread. How much are the buckets going for now? Can you still get a large Fosters for the same price as the regular size beers?

I am intersted in an answer to this question as well. Wondering if we should buy beer by the bucket (Bud Lite) or purchase drink coupons for them. Can u use a drink coupon for the 16 oz aluminum?

Most definitely not! Draft is very hard to come by and when you do find it, no micro brew. :(

Best thing about getting a bucket is that you don't need to wait for a new beer when you finish yours. Cost savings isn't all that much.

 

Selection is very limited as well... That's why I usually do mixed drinks onboard.

Last year they didn't have Foster's on our cruise. They said they were out of stock for awhile. Anyone seen it lately. It is still in the mega large cans?

[AndrewD65]

You can do cans, on the Legend in June I did cans for 14.00 including everything.

Can anyone let me know what my beer choices are, besides Bud, Coors and I'm guessing Fosters?

 

Does Carnival offer a specialty beer like RCCL does, they have a beligum style beer that they put their own label on and it was really good.

 

Thanks!

On the Valor a few weeks ago.. bucket of coors light was $20 and change and bud was $24 and change for 16oz plastic bottles and aluminum bottles.. no cans.. I saw cans of Heineken and Guinness.. they also had a blue moon beer that was quite tasty.. they have quite a few selections.. I dont remember them all tho..

The only "tap" you'll see are the small Heineken kegs.

 

As for Fosters, they are still 25.4 ounces compared to 16 but they are more expensive. I think it was about a $1.50 higher.

Just came back from Triumph (9/11/10). A bucket of Bud light (4) was $24 and some change and that included gratuity. I don't recall seeing Fosters though.

[Julienatul]

Wow it seems prices have gone up. I usually drink bud light but if coors is cheaper Ill do that. I havent seen fosters in a while on the cruises but used to get them a few years back

[Jimmy Geegitz]

Fosters are 6.75 for 25.5 oz "oilcan" Bud Lite is $5.75 for 16 oz aluminum bottle. plus tip of course. Fosters is the best beer deal on the boat.

09/10 on The Glory 4 coor's light in the bucket grand total $20.47 including gratuity.

I believe they only charge the Miami tax if you are actually in Miami when you make the purchase.

 

Found out this little tidbit on my last cruise!
