Stadiums brewing their own beer?

I'm almost surprised the clowns running the Red Sox don't do this.
I would try it if it was fairly priced, but it wouldn't be, so no.

 

Sandlot Brewery at Coors Field in Denver

Not exactly the stadium brewing their own beer (stadium owner is Denver Metropolitan Major League Baseball Stadium District), but the brewery is a subsidiary of the name on the stadium.

 

I don't know of any brewery inside a stadium. I know Two Brothers has a beer specially made for the Kane County Cougars (Arizona Diamondbacks Single A affiliate) called Raging Cougar Ale. It's only available at the Cougars Stadium and the Two Brothers Taphouse in Scottsdale AZ/Aurora, IL.

 

I'll take the Sierra Nevada until someone tells me to do otherwise...seems half my life runs on that exact statement...lol...

 

This is where Blue Moon was first created.

 

I'd give it a try and hope they have something else to fall back on in case it wasn't that good. But of course I'd give it a try.

 

drink good beer before the game and bring in a flask. 10$ a pint doesn't sit well with me

 

If it's close enough in price to a macro, for sure i'd give it a shot.

 

There is a brewpub (Dempsey's) inside Camden Yards in Baltimore. I don't know what their arrangement is and the beer was not great when I went, but it's there.

 

My local Minor League team is quasi doing it - partnered with a local brewery for their own label, but not brewed at the stadium:

Against the Grain Brewing Co. in Louisville Slugger Stadium, a minor league ballpark in Louisville, KY. Quaffed a couple here about ten years ago, but it was called Browning's Brewery then:

I think this is a great idea. Ever since I read a sweedish beer blog about how restaurants are employing brewers to compliment their menus I have thought this is a good way to bring this vocation back into prominence. brewpubs, restaurants, football teams? Well, don't turn your nose up at jobs I say.

 

The Durham Bulls recently set up a nano-brewery at the ballpark. The equipment was purchased and set up by the former head brewer from a local brewery. A different local brewer had a beer called Bullpen Pale Ale. The ballpark organization recently purchased that name from them with the intent to call the stadium-brewed beer by that name. The whole thing is a little strange if you ask me.

 

The SF Giants will have the new Anchor brewery within spitting distance of the ballpark in a few years time. Can't wait to go back home and check it out when it's done!

 

Rose Garden in Portland has a small Widmer brewery.

 

Ive only seen Surly... brew one for the Twins it was called Bandwagon i do see more brewpubs taking their craft to ballparks as craft brew is the new thing to have at the stadium and so many new pubs opening its a great tie in for both involved IMO
