Attending an NFL game is known for its expense, and while the ticket prices can be high, the cost of beer at these events is often a major point of frustration. Unlike stadium-prepared food, you can easily find the exact same beer at a supermarket for a fraction of the price. The recent analysis of beer prices at every NFL stadium, conducted by the experts at Bookies.com, shed light on the significant variation in beer pricing across the league. To ensure a fair comparison, they standardized the prices for a 16-ounce serving, although the specific beer brands used were not specified, which could potentially affect the pricing.
According to their findings, the most expensive team for beer is the Philadelphia Eagles, with a 16-ounce beer costing $14.67 – a substantial $5.11 above the league average of $9.56. This surprising result placed Philly ahead of Los Angeles, where Rams and Chargers fans paid $13.75 for their beer, the second-highest price on the list. If you’re looking for a more budget-friendly beer option, consider becoming a fan of the Jets, Falcons, or Lions, as their stadiums in New Jersey, Atlanta, and Detroit offer beer for just $6.25 each.
Here is the complete list of NFL teams ranked by their beer prices according to Bookies.com:
- $14.67: Eagles
- $13.75: Rams, Chargers

However, it’s worth noting that judging a stadium solely by its beer prices is not the whole picture. Bookies.com also considered ticket prices, parking, sodas, and hot dogs to determine the overall cost of attending games. In this comprehensive analysis, the San Francisco 49ers emerged as the most expensive team to watch, while the Arizona Cardinals were the most budget-friendly option for NFL fans.
