RockRaines Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 QUOTE (ewokpelts @ Mar 12, 2017 -> 11:36 AM) Blue moon dosent count. 100 local and regional Brands not owned by miller or InBev? That's unprecedentedly awesome! 1. In LF there were tons of craft brands, many local and some national. You had to get out of your seat to find it. 2. Modern day craft beer owes its life to Blue Moon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockRaines Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 QUOTE (Sleepy Harold @ Mar 28, 2017 -> 01:32 PM) Luckily they'll have about 100 other beers for you to chose from. They still should have a couple Miller/Coors taps there, you'll just have to find them. SouthWallace beat me to it. There better be coors light, otherwise I dont know what I'll binge drink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eminor3rd Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 QUOTE (WBWSF @ Mar 11, 2017 -> 08:49 AM) This is another low point in the JR ownership. The team can't get a major beer sponsor on their TV + Radio broadcasts. Some people have posted that the White Sox will receive a new TV deal in 2 years. I really wonder how much the team will get from that deal. The next 2 seasons are going to be brutal and I have to wonder if the team is going to get any big offers from any TV station. FWIW, all big beer distributors are in the process of drastically reducing their sports venue marketing investments all over the country, and have been for several years. It's not just a Sox problem, it's just a major revenue stream that is drying up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZoomSlowik Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 I saw "Craft Cave" in the article and got excited. I'm assuming lots of Two-Hearted, Oberon and All-Day IPA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally like thats its not all IPA-based. The pilsners are a nice selection of some of my favorites. Having Oberon is a win/win.

SoxFan2003 Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 29, 2017 -> 10:29 AM) Oh its a hike to the Kave I've got to say, I'm dissapointed that they are putting this all the way down in the Bullpen Sports Bar. The only way to get there is by taking the ramps down to field level. Then if you stay in there, you end up watching the game from tv's inside the bar. At that point, I'd rather just go to a bar somewhere else and pay half of what I'm paying for a beer. Hopefully the Craft Beer selections at the stands throughout the park are still well stocked (and replacing Miller Lite with Modelo helps too).

ZoomSlowik Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Pretty decent list, but I misread the initial article. I doubt I'm going to the bowels of the stadium just for a beer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxfan18 Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Been hanging out in the BPB a lot the last few years, so I've got no problem with going down there. Usually will spend the middle innings there and come back up around the 7th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which ones? I love the Mama's Little Yella Pils from Oskar Blues. In general, I've been on a Pilsner kick for about a year now. Been drinking IPAs for a decade now and I think my tastebuds finally gave out. I also really like the "Pivo" pilsner from Firestone. Their brewmaster is a fellow K College Alum. All in all I'm quite impressed by that beer list. That's far and away one of the best I've seen and surpasses even what they have available at Safeco. One really cool thing you do at Safeco, at least in the bleachers, is buy a craft 22, so say a Rogue Chocolate stout, and for like $12 you get a commemorative cup and the 22.

jenksycat Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 If any other boozers were wondering, the patio party's have Bud/BL/Modelo now instead of Miller which nearly brought me to tears of joy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
