hop2it Posted July 19, 2017 #1 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Could any fellow travelers and good-beer fans share their knowledge of the HAL beer selections, particularly the Veendam (Boston-Montreal) cruises? Searches here have proven fruitless, or hopsless rather. (All our previous cruises have been on Princess ships, so I assume the offerings might be similar. But I do hope for some quality craft beers on our coming voyage.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1884Vic Posted July 20, 2017 #5 Share Posted July 20, 2017 If you like really good beer the selection is terrible. Occasionally a bottle or two of something interesting makes it onto the ship but it's largely the regular commercial stuff. Nothing comes out of a tap. My husband is a very serious homebrewer and loves to find interesting stuff when we travel. Unfortunately you can't bring it on board like you can wine.

hop2it Posted July 20, 2017 Author #6 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Thanks for the replies. I was afraid the on-board choices would leave a lot to be desired. But the good news is that all the port towns have plenty of bars/restaurants with local microbrews to sample. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catl331 Posted July 20, 2017 #7 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Nothing comes out of a tap. IIRC The Mix has four brands on tap: Stella Artois, Beck's, Boddington's, and Bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxmantoo Posted July 20, 2017 #8 Share Posted July 20, 2017 IIRC The Mix has four brands on tap: Stella Artois, Beck's, Boddington's, and Bass. Exactly what they had on the Veendam last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
