A question for BA golfers...

I picked the BMC option, but for me it's yuengling. Didn't quite fit the choices.

 

hopslam/budweiser guy

 

I carry as many NG Berliner Weiss that fit in the biggest pocket on my golf bag

 

I didn't vote because nowadays many courses have better beer on the beer cart especially now with the canning craze...last year I had snpa, long trail, among others this year should be even better

 

I usually pack a cooler of my own. I try to get craft cans like Oskar Blues or Baxter from Maine to name a few. If I'm in a real pinch I'll go with the BMC options they have at the course or cans of my own.

 

You have to buy from the beer cart, right?? Its so exciting when you see it roll up to you. That said I do try to get the best of what they got. If it is BMC so be it.

 

I wait until after the round. golf is hard enough when I'm sober.

 

Session ales are the way to go when golfing so pack your own!

 

Love to golf but your right not alot of craft choices i will usually have a couple BMC options from the lovely beer cart lady when she comes around other than that im here for the golf more than the beer

 

Last course I played a few weeks ago had Revolution Anti Hero cans. Drank a bunch and proceeded to hit two 340 yard drives with help of crazy wind in my back.

 

I disk golf does that make me a golfer?

 

If I had a better playing job/career, I would like to play more often.
Golf is such an interesting sport.
By the way, I love to watch/play most sports.

 

I think it varies from state to state but in Michigan, you can not (legally) bring your own alcohol to the course if the golf course has a liquor license. I'm pretty much stuck with whatever garbage they are serving.

 

I play, but while have 8 month old twin boys, my game has dropped from low single to I feel mid teens.

I don't drink on the course. I'll rarely have a beer, and usually when I'm not trying to get a solid/serious game in. We've been known to bring a couple cans of something from time to time. Last summer it was Westbrook Gose and some Jai Alai.

My clubhouse has some local craft on tap. Usually 5-6 taps, usually 1-2 craft taps. They'll fill us to go cups of draft.

I also live on the 17th hole, so sometimes we will stop at my house, walk through the backyard to the garage and pull something from the fridge, or keezer. Or fill a growler up and finish 18, and go play another 9 or duel it out on the par 3 course.

 

Who has time to handle it . . . Just one at a time.
Seriously though. I take 3 or 4 with me. I like session canned session ipa's.

 

Most of the courses I play at offer at least a few basic craft options, Sierra Navada, Harpoon, Long Trail, etc. If I play one of the courses that doesn't (which tend to also be the courses that dont allow coolers) I'll drink BMC in a pinch. Normally I only have 2 beers or so during the round, most of my drinking is done after the fact, so I usually don't fret if they dont have any craft.

 

Always bring my own cooler with something fairly light that I can drink a few without getting too buzzed and is still good if it gets warm.

My go to right now is SN summerfest in cans.

 

We always play early, so it's usually a BA stout as my "swing coach" and whatever else I pack. Usually feeling good by 6 or 7 tee. By then I'm nice and loose bu it's a slippery slope between keeping the buzz or loosing it outright and getting sloppy.

 

With friends it's a straight up liquor fest, with beer as well. If i'm going out by myself with a cart to play a quick 9 or 18 I bring a small cooler with a couple beers in it. Of course the course (lol) doesn't allow you to bring your own beverages so I have to be somewhat sneaky. The craft options are SN Pale Ale or Ninkasi Total Domination, and at 4-5 bucks a bottle it's not worth it at all.

 

no more or less than a mini-golfer IMO

 

I hope not. Disk is a much better game

 

I throw a couple Sixpoint Crisps or some other light weight can into the cooler if I'm riding with my buddies.

Semi serious/walking round I'm only packing water.

 

I don't drink while playing - I have a bad enough game as it is (I am very happy if I shoot 100)
I'll save it till after the round - it's unusual to not even find Sam Adams at a place.
IF there is nothing worth drinking, I'll wait till I get home. No big deal.

 

Haven't played golf in years. But if I were to play now, I'd consider packing Westbrook Gose.

 

Barrel aged golfers

 

I am in the minority apparently. I'm not a frequent golfer, but when I do, I buy a six pack of whatever is in cans. Usually Coors or similar.

 

I can't be bothered to pack a cooler, and almost all courses around here don't allow you to bring your own, so I just buy 2-3 Buds and call it good for 18.

 

I drink after I play. Heavily!!! Golf is too expen$ive to get all jaked on the course. Village Links in Glen Ellyn has a bountiful tap list, as does Arrowhead in Wheaton. V.L. having great pours and prices to boot. I DO go up to Boyne in Petosky every year for a week of unlimuted play. I ALWAYS stay the Saturday before in Grand Rapids, making my yearly pilgrammage to Founder's and HopCat. My cooler for the week will have Zombie, Gumball, Devil Dancer, Two Hearted, Daisy Cutter, among some newfound canned goodies that are to soon come out.

 

Hey!......I resent that?

 

I'll buy a couple BMC or w/e they have for sale on the cart, and of course tip the girl who hauled it to me.

 

I play, and shoot in the 80s. But the sport is boring & 18 holes takes too much time out of your day (unless a work/weekday entertaining a customer). 9-holes would be perfect. I'd much rather be playing baseball or snowboarding. No offense. To each their own

 

Depends where I go. A privately-owned, although public-allowed golf club near me sells good beer on tap and has bottles. When I go elsewhere, usually State Golf Courses, I pack my own beer of course!

 

Straight up liquor "HOMIE" is on the executive course...

 

Played alot of golf from 1978-2006 , (x2membership , 4 hcp , worked in the industry for almost 15+years)
& mostly bought what was served at the turn/grab and go , (Kokanee , Corona , Canadian , Heinken)

Now that I no longer work/play except maybe twice a year ,
craft beer would best suit the 19th hole , not the first to eighteenth
if you need to drink , don't drive , don't even putt

 

I see Newcastle cans at many courses I've played so go with that. I'll do Blue Moon or Yuengling if push comes to shove.

 

i pack somewhere between 2-3 beers in my bag with some ice/a cold pack as i play.

 

I golf a fair amount and typically don't drink anything but water/gatorade when I play. I usually walk when I play, so try to stay hydrated. After the round, however, I try to make up for all the time I spent playing golf instead of drinking good beer!

 

Man back when I was 20 my brother and I brought some Busch Light onto a course during summertime at a college town course. The ranger came by and questioned us about the beer. We told him we bought them from the cart girl. He laughed at us and indicated they didn't sell Busch Light and just went on about his business.

 

Depends on the course, but many of them are now carrying good beer in cans. OB, Jai Alai, Sweetwater IPA, Founders Centennial and Terrapin Recreation Ale, and now HI-5...
