Nikkoo Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 Hi, I am not asking about cost. I know a beer is between $6.50 and $7.50 plus gratuity. Is it a pint from a tap? Schooner? 330ml bottle? 500ml can? Uk pint? US pint? This is important to know when working out if a package is viable! Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLMoran Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 My experience has been that all beers on Royal's ships are standard US 12-ounce (~350ml) bottles, at least for the craft beers like Paulaner Salvator Dopplebock or more mass-market beers like Blue Moon that I typically drink. I don't recall that the pub serves anything on tap, unless maybe it's the most-common stuff like Budweiser, Heinekin, or Miller that I won't touch. On the pool deck, where they have to be careful about broken glass, beer is served in screw-top aluminum "bottle-cans"; still US 12 ounces. Back when some ships had a partnership with Michael's Genuine Pub, I seem to recall that you could actually get beers on tap; sailed Anthem too late (partnership was ended and pub converted to line-standard style with the name Brass & Bock), so I never got to find out if those were 12-ounce or pint pours, but I'm guessing still 12-ounce.

Nikkoo Posted June 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 Ok, thanks for the reply. Bottles are nice but tap is better At least I know what to expect now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWDW1204 Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 This is the menu from the "pub" on the Promenade. A few common beers on tap. From what I remember, on Oasis class, pool deck, Budweiser products are 16 oz. aluminum can/bottle. And for bars that carry it, Foster's is the big can.

FoxboroCruiser Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 I had both Red Stripe and Bud Light on the Empress last week, both were cans and were the 16oz version, not 12oz. Fuzzywuzzy and JLMoran 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morganno Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 The fosters (if you can stomach it) certainly give the best bang for your buck. I like the corona when I'm not counting the $ and red stripe when I'm on a budget Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance If you are trying to work out if the drinks package is viable then it's probably not. But don't go only on alcholic drinks. You can have smoothies, premium coffees (talking illy espressos here not your regular starbucks), iced lattes, bottled water (handy for the room and excursions) and unlimited cocktails. You'll be amazed how quickly it adds up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason.H. Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Fresh squeezed orange juice is included as well. I drank at least two of those a day. So those 2, 2 beers, and a glass of wine at dinner was pretty much the break even point...I drank quite a bit more than that though. Plus its nice because you can try all kinds of things you usually wouldn't. And if you dont like it, you dont have to drink it. I would have spent 50 bucks a day on chocolate and espresso martini's if I didnt have the drink package lol RWDW1204 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
