Ranked: NFL Beer Cost Inflation Over 10 Years

In 2023, an average beer cost $8.81 at an NFL game, marking a 25% increase over the past decade.
Although this rise is slower than inflation, beer prices vary widely across stadiums. For example, a 16-ounce beer at a Washington Commanders game costs $16.49—the highest in the league—while fans attending Cincinnati Bengals games enjoy the most affordable option at just $6.80.
This graphic shows which teams have seen the steepest increases in beer prices, based on data from Team Marketing Report via FinanceBuzz.
Ranked: NFL Teams With the Fastest Rise in Beer Costs
In the table below, we show where the cost of a 16-ounce beer has risen the most across the NFL:
| Team | 2013 Cost | 2023 Cost | Increase |
|---|---|---|---|
| Carolina Panthers | $4.36 | $10.56 | 142% |
| Los Angeles Chargers | $6.67 | $14.75 | 121% |
| Philadelphia Eagles | $7.00 | $15.35 | 119% |
| New Orleans Saints | $5.67 | $12.00 | 112% |
| Los Angeles Rams | $7.20 | $14.75 | 105% |
| San Francisco 49ers | $7.15 | $12.00 | 68% |
| Tennessee Titans | $6.67 | $11.00 | 65% |
| Jacksonville Jaguars | $7.00 | $11.50 | 64% |
| Tampa Bay Buccaneers | $5.75 | $9.25 | 61% |
| Arizona Cardinals | $6.00 | $9.25 | 54% |
| NFL Average | $7.03 | $8.81 | 25% |
The Carolina Panthers saw the sharpest increase in beer cost, likely due to having the cheapest 16-ounce beer in the league in 2013, at $4.36.
As we can see, five teams saw beer prices more than double. Over the last decade, each of these teams had stadiums that were either newly built, or underwent major renovations. Both the Los Angeles Chargers and Rams, for instance, moved into the $5.5 billion SoFi Stadium in 2020, contributing to higher stadium-related expenses, including beer, tickets, and parking.
Beer costs have also surged by 119% at Philadelphia Eagles games, where a single beer cost $15.35 last year. This increase follows a $125 million renovation of the Lincoln Financial Field in 2013-14, which upgraded amenities and added 1,600 new seats.
Similarly, beer prices for San Francisco 49ers games have climbed 68%, the sixth-highest jump in the league. Although Levi’s Stadium is only a decade old, the team is already planning a $200 million renovation ahead of the 2026 Super Bowl, which could further affect beer costs.
Overall, beer sales remain a significant revenue stream for NFL teams. With a stadium capacity of 65,000, selling a $10 beer to half the attendees would generate $325,000 per game in beer revenue alone.
