Is beer available at the beach and hotel bars in Egypt resorts?

Based on 1 discussion with 4 participants · Last activity: 6 days ago

TL;DR

Yes, beer is available throughout the day at Egyptian resort beaches: canned beer at the club beach, draft beer at the main beach and sports bar, plus cocktails and beer at evening entertainment.

What the community said

There is a sports bar at the resort; reports say cocktails there are better than at most other bars, second only to the lobby bar. Bottled beer can be served on request at the beach, the main pool, and the lobby.

At the beach and pool, only local Egyptian draft lager is included for free. Imported canned beer is available for an additional charge.

Non-alcoholic beer is available at the beach bar — little-known but confirmed to be in stock.

The most common beer at the beach is bottled Five Stars, which is well-regarded. Draft beer at the beach is noticeably less tasty. Bottled Stella occasionally appears. Beer frequently runs out and may not be properly chilled.

At beach number 4, beer is free. For a dollar a day, the bartender pours local Stella from a can — reportedly tasty with mild carbonation. Draft beer from the tap is more heavily carbonated. In the evening, free beer is available at the lobby bar and during evening shows.

Cocktail quality varies by location: best at the lobby bar, acceptable at the main pool bar, noticeably worse at the waterpark and beach bars (e.g., mojitos made with syrup and whisky instead of rum). The lobby bar is open 24 hours.

Beach beer is poured from bottles in small amounts, often warm, and sometimes runs out. There is no way it gets watered down.

The cheapest approach is to tip the beach bartender $2 upfront and ask them to bring you 5 cold bottles throughout the day.

At the 16+ pool bar, beer is poured in full glasses and can be brought to your room on request. A $1 tip helps.
