Is it really BOGO? We just visited to look around and had lunch at Cody's (Sumter) they had BOGO, so I got two beers for the price of one. Got the bill and it was $7.00, I had some beers around town that were $3.50 each. So I think I just brought two beers at the same time.

A 20oz draft of a decent beer will cost at least $7 which is right in line with the regular price at the bar huts of $6 or $6.50. During happy hour at the huts, I get two 20oz beers for $6.50 - BOGO. I get two beers at Cody's and pay a similar price ($7 sounds right) so again, BOGO.

What beer did you have around town that was $3.50?

Agree. The only thing you might find for $3.50 is a Miller Lite, and even that's a good price.

Are the beers at the huts 20oz? I thought they were 16oz.

Pretty sure they are 20oz, they just fit in my 20oz Yeti.

Dam, they used to have an honor bucket filled with Ice before Covid. During happy hour, when you bought a can of beer, they would open one and give it to you and throw a second unopened can in the bucket. Whenever you felt like it, you could just go to the bucket and fish out your second ice cold beer. I never returned to the honor bucket and couldn’t find my second cold one. No more honor bucket is yet another Covid casualty.

I think it was in SS at Amerikanos Grille, I could be wrong on the BOGO, Guess I have to come back and do more research.
