How To Plan a Fun Beach Day on a Budget

by

How To Plan a Fun Beach Day on a BudgetNot everyone in America knows that Delaware has some of the prettiest beaches in the country. In fact, we Delawareans consider it our hidden treasure! Sure enough, the shoreline tends to get pretty crowded during summer months, yet we still consider our beaches pretty clean and family-friendly.

To prepare you for a summer filled with successful beach day trips in the Tri-State area, we put together tips and hacks on How To Plan a Fun Beach Day On a Budget.

 

How To Plan a Fun Beach Day On A Budget:

  1. Stock up on beverages in sales tax free Delaware! Why spending more money on alcohol when you can save it for something else? Visit Tri-State Liquors in Claymont, Delaware (333 Naamans Rd) before you head down to the beach. We are Delaware’s largest beverage superstore! See this month’s specials here.
  2. Pick up your sunscreen at a Farmer’s Market. One of our favorite places to visit is a farmer’s market in New Castle, Delaware. Not everybody knows that besides food, there’s a great shop with heavily discounted beauty products. It’s never good to skip a sunscreen on a beach day, so make sure to stop by the market, and get one for your family and friends!
  3. Bring a cooler. OK, so you stocked up on your favorite beverages, but what’s a good beach day without a cold drink in your hand? Save yourself trips to the store and bring ice (and cups) with you!
  4. Pack your snacks. There’s more than plenty places to grab food by the beach, but why leaving the paradise when you can bring your munchies with you? It’s not only convenient to always have some food on hand, but also very friendly for your wallet! Plus, no waiting lines!
  5. Stay connected. Make sure to download Tri-State Liquors mobile app. You never know when you get stranded on the beach and it might get in handy! Plus, we offer great loyalty program for our customers (hint, #1).

For the Love of Beer and Baseball

by

beer and baseballIs there anything more American than baseball and beer? We don’t think so! With stadium names such as Miller Park, Coors Field and Anheuser-Busch, it clear that beer has big presence in baseball. Sipping an ice cold beer and watching a baseball game on a hot summer day has long been one of America’s favorite past-times…

“I think it’s just that atmosphere of a baseball game and having a beer—and maybe a hot dog or brat or hamburger or something of that nature, or peanuts—and just sitting there and sipping on a good beer is always a delight. It seems like the fans always enjoy that, and I do too. But what really intrigues me at that time and at that moment with all the other things that go on in the world, bad, indifferent, good, whatever, at that moment you’re letting your inhibitions down and watching America’s pastime. You’re just relaxed, you can let that stuff go. You prefer a win to a loss, but there’s something about that that’s very intriguing and nice, I believe.” – Beer Bob Gillis

And the joy doesn’t stop there. Thanks to the craft beer craze, fans are no longer forced to spent top dollar for subpar beers. Many stadiums have upped their micro-brew and local brewery offerings, making watching the game much more pleasurable.

Philadelphia – Home of the Perfect Pub Crawl

The city of Philadelphia has been a beer city since the turn of the American Revolution and was known as the greatest brewing city of the Western Hemisphere up until Prohibition in 1920s. Today, Citizens Bank Park, home to the Phanatic’s fans, offers a wide variety of local craft and micro-brews.

Since the craft beer explosion that began in the late 1980s, Philadelphia has regained its reputation as one of the premier beer cities in the nation and around the world. ‘GQ’ dubbed Philadelphia as the Home of the Perfect Pub Crawl.

So there you have it, plenty of incentive to make your microbrew experience a Philadelphia one. If you have a favorite Philadelphia craft beer, please share your thoughts on our Facebook page.
