When I went to the games last year, Natty Boh 16 oz. cans were $8.00, and Flying Dog 16 oz. cans were $8.50. So there's basically no reason to get the Natty Boh. Not only does the Flying Dog taste infinitely better, but it also has about twice the alcohol content or so.

They might think that it's local and Baltimore, but that's an illusion. The brand is owned by a company in Russia.

I had read the same thing, but MurphDogg set me straight in post#13. While it is no longer brewed in Charm City, it is still owned by an American company.

The problem is, lots of media outlets, printed the information about the sale to the Russian company.

Almost nobody covered the followup that it failed and what really happened.

I may be wrong on the price of the 16oz Boh can, could someone check tonight?

I did have one 20oz draft, it was $8.

The vendor had on a pin that said $6.75, do that may have been for Boh. Still a far cry from the $2.00 I used to pay. Even better was when we were allowed to bring in our own.

Yeah, pretty sure the 16oz cans are $8 and the drafts, whatever size they are(20?) are $8 also. It was the same price as all the other domestic beer. I waited in line about 20 minutes on opening day to find out the happy hour was a no go this year. Not sure why people wait so long in that line when there are plenty of other options throughout the park with no lines to get beer.

I could not find the other thread but no Natty Boh. I personally don't care because i don't drink beer at the stadium but i know some people might.

Boh is one of many beers in the Pabst portfolio. Pabst was purchased by a Russian conglomerate.

Pabst doesn't even brew beer. They are totally a marketing company. They contract out brewing. I think Nattie Boh is brewed by Miller. I don't mind it being gone. It isn't using the original recipe and it is pretty rock bottom as beers go. If you can pay 8 dollars for a Nattie Boh you can pay 9 dollars for a quality beer locally made. If you want cheap beer before the game starts there is Pickles.

The only time I ever drink Natty Boh is at OPACY. Sad. Why?

The article insists that it's because it's not brewed locally and they are focusing on more local beers (then why do they still sell bud light/miller, etc.). I'm sure there is some other reason... like $$$.

      Hyde: No Idea if Suarez Will Be Back

      By Tony-OH · Posted

      I think at $5 million he's an insurance policy that can go to the pen if need be. I'd rather not go into spring training with him penciled into the rotation. But I also don't want Trevor Rogers penciled in either.  He also could be a bridge until Bradish is ready.

      Hyde: No Idea if Suarez Will Be Back

      By Sports Guy · Posted

      So to all of you saying you would bring him back…. GRod, Eflin, Kremer, Felix, DC, Webb, Soto, Dominguez, Akin and Cano That leaves room for 3 more pitchers and this doesn’t include McDermott, Rogers or Povich. 3 spots left, 1 high end reliever and 2 starters. Which of those 3 spots do you want him at or, who do you take off the above list and keep Suarez over?

      ALWC Game 1 Attendance

      By interloper · Posted

      I went to a few games this year, but here are the reasons I didn't go to the WC games: The team had been an absolute bummer to watch for 3 entire months out of the season and to be honest by the time the playoffs got here I was exhausted and annoyed. The brand of baseball they had been employing for half the season (over-reliance on the home run, terrible ABs, iffy defense) frankly sucked to watch, even on TV, and I'm already spending money to watch them on TV. I wanted them to prove they could get past the WC round before I shelled out more money. I imagine a lot of people share these reasons with me.

      ALWC Game 1 Attendance

      By LookitsPuck · Posted

      People whining about 41k attendance and blaming it on the city have no idea what they're talking about.  Why were there 47k+ of Game 1 against the Rangers last year? Did the city all of a sudden not matter then? It was also a day game. Alas, it was on a Saturday. And they had that locked up for awhile. Why has attendance went up YoY? Look at the Astros and the Brewers. They had *less* people at their G1 games. Is Milwaukee not a nice city? Is Houston not a nice city?  This is pretty simple. It was a day game during a weekday with crappy weather coming off a pretty lackluster performance going into the playoffs. And folks didn't know if there'd even be a home game until, what, barely a week before?  People like winners. Miami is an awesome city. They got a new stadium when it first opened. But guess what? That team stunk in fairly short order upon stadium opening and attendance tanked.

      Would love to bring him back on a 1 year deal for anywhere from $3-$7m.  Great depth arm. Don't pencil him into the 5th starter role. This club needs to pickup two starters: a TOR arm and a BOR arm. Have an open competition for the 5th spot. If Suarez doesn't make it, he'd be a great middle reliever arm. Open competition between Free Agent, Suarez, Povich, McDermott, and Rogers. Do not just go into 2025 penciling Rogers into any role.

      What's Your Top Priority

      By Orioles West · Posted

      It's really tough to set a top priority when I don't know what the budget is. I think the new ownership group will be investing more than the previous regime, I just don't know by how much. I highly doubt the O's will ever be in the "spend whatever it takes mode" like the Mets a couple years ago or the standard yearly overspending by the Dodgers or Yanks. It's still tough to make my Christmas list without knowing the balance sheet. If we're the Dodgers, we keep Burnes and Tony Taters. Hopes and wishes it is then: Even if we sign Burnes, which I wouldn't mind at least making a run at him, I think we need another starter, because injuries and how this year went. Even if the Mountain returns healthy, we need high leverage help in the pen. Veteran bat - no idea who, but if Mullins and Santander leave, we will have to add someone -- I don't know that our prospects will be stepping up or stepping back next year.

      Who Stays and Who Goes Early Guess

      What I like about Webb is he has an excellent changeup and can get LHB's out. Besides Felix, everyone else in the bullpen needs to be matched up. I think it is important to have another reliable guy who can be brought in to any situation. He is also cheap. I think he is too valuable to just give him away to another team. I like him better than Perez for sure.
