FtWildernessFamily...Holly 25 Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Let's get right to it.Unlimited beer and sangria at HDDR. This is our first time at this dinner show. Is the beer awful? Any idea what brand it is? And the sangria - back story, I am not a wine drinker. However, I had my first glass (well, my first TWO glasses) of sangria last weekend and it was fantabulous. I've seen sangria at parties before and have only ever seen it made with red wine. The stuff I had was the dry, white wine. Any idea what the stuff at HDDR is made from?TIA. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Grumpy and Grandma 739 Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 IIRC it's Budweiser and the Sangria is made with red wine and I thought pretty good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AuburnJen 772 Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 It was good. That is all I really cared about. :rofl2: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaveInTN 3,247 Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Yeah, the beer is Bud, and maybe Bud Light. Sangria from red wine. I don't remember much about it. Is that a good sign? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 All the wines were on the dry side for my taste. I tried the rose, chardonay, and sangria. I was hoping to drink my money's worth, but didn't like any of them. Oh well!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Is that a good sign?I think that's a REAL good sign. When I told the Hubs that there was unlimited beer, his response was "HELL YEAH". I think he, too, was planning to not remember it...then I reminded him that we leave the next day and he'd be hauling us back hungover. I think he changed his tune just a teeny bit.

Brent... Just Brent 83 Posted December 5, 2011 Report Share Posted December 5, 2011 I second or third of fourth what everyone else said. Bud and Bud Light. The Sangria is made from a pretty cheap red wine, so be careful with it. It goes down easy, but you'll pay the next day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted December 5, 2011 Report Share Posted December 5, 2011 I've got the menu sitting right in front of me. It's Bud Light DraftThe wines are Chardonnay, Rose, Merlot, Sangria, and Pomegranate Lemonade (not sure if that is leaded or unleaded) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FtWildernessFamily...Holly 25 Posted December 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 AWESOME! Thanks for all of the info, and thanks mouseketab for the info straight outta the menu!:)Hubs used to work for Anheuser Busch and we still have brand loyalty (well, I am a Corona lover but will drink Bud still) so it's good to know it's a good product!
