Hey, don't forget the Geeters that are recovering alcoholics and nonalcoholics here, they like Ice cold Energy Drinks(RED BULL). See you all at home soon!

I will take the Bud Light. That is probably my favorite "middle of the day" sun pounding down 11am to 1pm beer. Just make it ice cold.

I would say that the kind of beer one should gift would depend on the time of day and the conditions. If it is in the middle of the day and it is blazing fucking hot, I would think they might appreciate something light and refreshing (and very, very cold). At night, slip them a good ale. Don't open it. That gatester might have one already open sitting someplace out of the wind. Or maybe they themselves don't drink beer and so they can put it in the shack for one of the others to have.

any beer gifted to us is always welcome:+) as for the open container tickets, well all those people who decided to go with lawyers for burners for their representation had their tickets quashed by the judge....same goes for the on the playa speeding tickets.

Yes there were a record number of open container citations issued. Wait until you get to your camp

Don't give your beer to Gate, save it for Greeter's. Cold and unopened and whatever you will be drinking is fine. BTW, last year the cops were checking for open containers and drugs on the way into the City so be aware and hold off until you park.

Here is a tip. Don't give beer to the gate staff. They will just want to stand there looking all stupid, ok they do that anyways. Just get your fake tickets stamped and move on. Your stow aways don't want to wait in those cramped places while you act like Mr. Nice guy giving those gate loosers a beer. Besides in all my years going to BM those gate people never gave me nothing but a pain in the butt. This is snark tribe isn't it?

oh Mia, you have asked the most magic question of all time, and given me a warm glow in my heart just thinking that someone loves us!!! you bring up a great point about temp, since some beers are better at room temp. cold beer is a fine thing, especially in the hot desert, but we can always make that beer cold ourselves so temp is not vital to our enjoyment of your beer. while we of the gate dept are not terribly picky, we love good beers as much as any other hard working burners. i have noticed that dark beers tend to get consumed before beers like pbr, but in the end, all beers are good beers. thank you for your concern, and for your beer. the gate staff will be thankful, because there really is nothing quite like a nice fresh beer when you get out of the lanes at the end of a long dusty shift. just in case you don't like to give out beer, i dunno, maybe beer dun you wrong, we also accept with glee the gift of whiskey. thank you, mia, for asking such an important question. you have my vote!

They prefer non-alcoholic beer.

i have found that gate prefers their beer unopened. gifting an opened beer seems to be de rigeur at the gate for some reason. beyond that they have never seemed picky to me.

I'd say PBR but thats my opinion.

What kind of beer and how cold(warm) do you want it at.
