Most cost effective beer

[ade1982]

Hi all,

 

I don't really care what I drink, but I do have a habit of drinking very quickly, and hence things get expensive (but I don't drink enough for a package)

 

If it doesn't explicitly state (16 floz) or the Foster's Oil Can (25 fl.oz), what size are the bottles / drinks?

 

I presume the Foster's Oil can is the cheapest drink when taking into account the amount of fluid vs cost?

 

Cheers

11.2 oz or 12 oz depending if it's measured in milliliter or oz. So it's the standard size. 330 (converted to 11.2) or 12oz which is the US standard.

Based on your title and the speed of drinking, you might consider the Bud's, Miller light's, Coors of the world. They are most likely to be the lowest cost choices also.

[bouhunter]

If the objective is maximum alcohol impact for the money Fosters is probably the best choice.

[AWOL]

The best unit per cost is the Miller or BUD 16 oz CANS

[Biker19]

The drinks at ports could be even cheaper.

Haha, I like that phrase.

 

 

Thanks all

If it gets expensive quickly, then a package might be worth it! But, I guess it depends how MANY you drink once you start....

Oil can by far the cheapest per ounce. Bud and miller are pretty outrageous. Basically $8 per beer. It has really gotten out of hand the past few years. That is an 8 fold markup based on grocery store prices. They essentially push you to a package so about 7 beers a day would make the package make sense.

Rhapsody was offering Fosters for $4.95 last week on TA. It might not be popular in Med and they were moving inventory

So 32oz for 4.95+ tip. That is way better than 6.95 + tip for a bud light if don't care what the beer is. $3

Per 16 oz vs $8 per 16 oz.

 

At that price difference I might even have a fosters. It is a pretty harsh taste imo and I love beer.

When I was on liberty last they were selling beers and coolers as a package deal. Can't remember the price but it was a lot cheaper than buying one at a time.

So while we are talking beer......I assume all the beer is bottles or cans? I really prefer draft but I am guessing that is not available.

There is draft available but more limited. Not sure on all ships but the pubs usually have a beer or two on draft. Otherwise it is mostly cans or bottles.

Most beers are in bottles or cans, however I do see a few draft choices available from time to time. Usually in the pub on Voyager/Freedom/Oasis class ships.

I've seen that but not that much cheaper. Something like buy 7 and the 8th is free kind of thing so usually like a 12.5% discount. Still like $56 for 8 beers which isn't exactly a steal imo.

I don't think it's 32 oz. More like 24 or 25

That's because Europeans know what real beer is supposed to taste like.

Thank you. I will be on Grandeur in July.

Maybe Schooner Bar on Grandeur.

Thanks Bob. But if I don't find it, a lack of draft beer will not dampen my cruise at all.

Really not sure why that was necessary, but thanks for your input. [emoji15]

Not even true, either :)

[topnole]

Yep. I guess it looks like 32 oz. lol.

 

Still way cheaper for the OP if he wants

The best price per oz.

 

As a American I sure hope to some day know what real beer tastes like. Ha ha.

 

Nothing like generalizing all of Europe (with many countries that are far from being beer cultures).

 

Cheers
