Daily Blog: Favorite Drink at a Baseball Game

Citifield has my favorite drink at a baseball game. Yup I really did just say that.

Since I'm a big beer drinker my favorite drink at Citifield. Although I am a big Yankees fan (and you can tell from my previous blogs) Citifield has Big Apple Brews located on the field level and the upper deck level. The one on field level is located a not too far from Shake Shack. The one on the upper deck level is located in the picnic area up there. Their Big Apple Brews has a very complete list of beers in my eyes. Whenever I got to a Mets game with my boyfriend I always get the Raspberry Shock Top.

Shock Top has become my new favorite Beligum wheat beer. I've also tried Slyfox Raspberry beer, but I like Shock Top's version of raspberry beer much better. I like wheat beer because it's a lighter beer and it's very smooth. I'm not a fan of dark beers, but I will drink them occasionally or when I am in the mood for one.

I've tried to get Raspberry Shock Top at other places I go to, but I can't find it. Looks like my best bet to get this beer is either at Citifield or at a beer distributor. Also at Big Apple Brews they have almost every kind of beer there.

So if you're a beer drinker like myself I would highly recommend getting your beers here when you go to the game. So if you go and try it please let me know how it goes. Not everyone is going to like it so drink at your own risk.

Happy Drinking!!!

Daily Blog: What's Your Favorite Beer?

Picking one beer and calling it my favorite is plain impossible. There are just so many beers out there to choose one. I love almost all kinds of beers. I’ve drank about almost every kind of beer out there such as Blue Moon, Hoegaarden, Purple Haze, Bud Light, Coors Light, Coronas, Sapporo, Bintang (Indonesian Beer), Raspberry Sly Fox, Stella, Yuengling, Heineken are just the few that I’ve had. For other beers that I didn’t list I would have to be in the mood to drink them.

For the most part I enjoy wheat beer. That I can say is my favorite type of beer. Some of the wheat beers I drink are Blue Moon, Hoegaarden and Purple Haze. I just started drinking Purple Haze and it’s not always available at most bars.  Although my friends laugh at me when I tell them about Purple Haze it’s actually a really good beer. If you like light beers then I’d recommend drinking wheat beer.

One of my all time classic beer are Coronas. I remember I started drinking Coronas when I went to the Pool Halls in Jackson Heights. Every pool hall in Jackson Heights severed Coronas. Some people drink it with a lime, but I don’t really have a preference, I’ll drink it either way. It’s also a great beer to have when you’re having a BBQ because the taste of the beer goes great with the food.

Another beer I use to drink at one point is Stella. It’s a nice heavier beer, not one made for chugging. This is one of those beers you drink slowly so you can appreciate the quality of it, similar to Heineken. When I was in Amsterdam I got to visit the Heineken Brewery. There was so much history to it. I never knew it was a family business and it’s now on its 4^th generation. The story itself is remarkable. For more on my trip to the Brewery stay tuned.

Then of course there are the American beers. My favorite American beer is Yuengling. The taste is different from Bud Light or Coors, but this to me is a great beer to have when you’re hanging out at the bar. When 1849 in the Village use to be a good bar to go to my friends and I would order a pitcher of Yuengling and get some wings. Yuenling has a distinct taste, but don’t let it fool you. Those dark beers will catch up to you so take your time drinking them.

Now for the dark lagers, I’m not really a big fan of them. Guinness is good, but I’m not running to the bar to drink it. I do enjoy it when I’m doing a car bomb. I’ve also tried New Castle as well, but it’s just not something I would prefer. To drink dark lager it’s an acquired taste that I don’t have and I don’t think I’ll be getting anytime soon.

I like my light beers for the most part and that’s what I’m sticking in.
