    Durham Bulls Athletic Park serves Bullpen Pale Ale by Carolina Brewery. Surprisingly, a god beer!

    Are you going to stay up and watch the game? I sure as hell am, and if a package from a ba on the east coast arrives on time then I will be enjoying my first ever kbs while I watch the game at 3 am, can't wait!

    Having Firestone Walker at Angel Stadium last season was great, and it sounds like the beer options are only getting better. But the Angels need to get the Bruery into the stadium, too. After all, its production facility is only 10 minutes away.

    That's cool news! My favorite ball park brew is Curve Ball from Pyramid Brewing. It's not a great beer at all, but I have a lot of memories drinking at Pyramid before M's games.

    Probably not. I don't have TV at home and I don't think anyplace near me with TVs is gonna be open 2 and 3am for the games. Might follow on-line if I stay awake. And even my hometown Bellingham Bells/Boundary Bay made the list. You can get beers for $2 on Tuesdays at the games. http://www.bellinghambells.com/

    Haha yeah I'm in the same boat, I don't have tv either so I'm just going to head over to my parents house and use their tv and eat their food for the night.

    I haven't heard, but they've been on tap at the stadium before. Last year they brewed a special beer with one of the M's pitchers (who wants to open his own brewery at home) that they aged on new bats. There's usually a decent selection of local beers on tap, but sometimes you have to hunt them out.

    Nothing beats a fresh Slyfox Pikeland Pils during a Philly summer at Citizens Bank Park.

    Could also add 90 Schilling for Coors Field.

    Chase Field in AZ offer Deschutes Black Butte Porter and Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. Not sure why they got slighted.

    Stone pale ale has been available at petco park for years... maybe the addition of stone ipa and BP big eye will get me to go out to a game this year. ...or maybe not.

    I just found out that the Minnesota Twins will be serving Surly and Fulton for the first time this year. (I work there and was sent a concessions list).

    In SF, you can get Lagunitas, Anchor and some other nice micros at the concession stands. But there is also a 'public house' on the ground floor where they have a rotating list of great stuff on tap, including PtE, Sculpin, and similar. So usually what I do is stop off there on the way to my seats, and then as the game gets going I usually just get a Lagunitas or two, since it takes a little too long to head all the way down there from the upper deck where I'm usually esconced. Anyway... yeah, let's get this season started. Go Giants!!!!

    Last year some friend's and I took a bus trip to Camden Yards to see the Yanks/O's and I definitely was enjoying some Draft Loose Cannon and bottled 60 Minute while Swisher put one over the right field wall and MO Rivera saved another.

    It's Pittsburgh so usually I just try and find a brewery that hasn't won anything over the past twenty years for thematic purposes. =)

    But seriously, I just drink Yuengling when I'm in the stadium, it just feels appropriate. Then I usually stroll over to the Rivertowne Pourhouse and try one of their microbrews with dinner afterward.
