Hi, I know there might be a similar post already but I just could not find it. I will be going to Petco Park this Saturday to see the Dodgers vs Padres and I would like to know which beers they sale inside the park and also the average price. I know they sale Ballast Point, Stone, Green Flash and some others but that info I got is from the beginning of the season, so maybe by now they are selling more options. Also if you know of any specials please comment. Please leave your comments, I'll appreciate it.
I always felt that the beers were decently priced, at least as far as stadiums go. I think I got a 24 oz Sculpin for $10. Not that horrible considering you usually pay the same (or more) for a Bud Light. I just expect to get reamed at any venue I go to. At least at Petco we get good options.
Damn, I stand corrected. That's not a bad price at all. Didn't realize the Sculpins were 24oz...I thought it was a 16oz for $10. Public House may be a bit more expensive than that, but $7 for 16oz of Blind Pig that you can take into the stadium (I usually double-fist) is not too shabby. http://www.publichousesf.com/menu/
...and depending on where your seats are you can go in and out of the public house all game long (might not even matter where your seats are?). A couple months back I sat right below the press box, and probably walked down to the public house 3 times throughout the game for blind pig.
I make the trek regardless of where I'm sitting, although holding two full beers and trying to show your ticket to get into the game is a bit of a balancing act...
PH was out of blind pig last time I was there but had Enjoy By 9/13 to back it up. Only double fisted the enjoy by once tho.(then switched to sextant stout on nitro)
YOU CAN FIND PETCO INFORMATION HERE. http://beeradvocate.com/community/threads/petco-park-craft-beer-locations.11235/ YES IT IS OLDER BUT FAIRLY ACCURATE, AND NOW THERE IS A BALLAST POINT BEER GARDEN WITH PORK BELLY NACHOS AND FREE HEART ATTACKS. YOU CAN ALSO GO TO THE CRAFT BEERS OF SAN DIEGO AS MENTIONED ABOVE. LAST GAME I WENT TO BALLAST POINT HAD A FIRKIN YES FIRKIN OF BLACK MARLIN WITH COCOA NIBS. I don't know of a ballpark in the US that is gonna beat that.
Nice! I go every year except this year because last year's trip was so successfull (my daughter was born 9 months later). So that is some extra special ball park beer. Will make it back down next year for sure! Go Giants! Battle for third!
The "Craft Beers of San Diego" location is located under/around Toyota Terrace and Hodads. Most of the stuff is run of the mill so I go for Sculpins. The Ballast Point firkin was likely there because it was BeerFest. Last season Sculpin could only be found in a couple of spots, but we saw it on a few random beer carts recently. It is the best value at the park, craft beer wise.
