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

The beach bar sometimes runs out or refuses to pour, but other resort bars will freely pour any locally made alcohol — guests can bring a 0.5L thermo mug (for beer or another drink) and staff will fill it for free.

On the way to the beach there is a bar called 'Veranda' that makes cocktails and drinks to take away. However, it's not convenient to run there from the beach frequently.

A bottle of Stella beer costs around $3 at the hotel; in the Old Town you can haggle it down to about $1.5.

Bottled beer is poured at the lobby bar. At the pool and beach you can ask staff to bring it, but they come infrequently and not quickly.

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.

Beer service at the beach starts at 12:00; other alcohol is served from 10:00.

The beach bar previously served only non-alcoholic drinks, but now also serves alcohol. It is located near the Al Fresco restaurant.

The bar in the new building on the beach serves good cocktails but is rarely busy.

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.
