Yet my family gets them every trip. When I say we are going to Universal the first question from my daughter is are we getting butterbeer.

Do you get multiple Butterbeers a trip, or just the one time?

Personally I don't really think this has anything to do with Epic or other additions and is just a normal yearly price increase that was bound to happen because captalism. Blue and Green milk have already been priced at $9 for awhile, and they are a smaller portion size than butterbeer (and taste worse)!

Correct... It just comes off as distasteful when an attraction drops in quality combined with price hikes.

Well I am a local so a trip is just a day. Never said I was financially responsible

But in reality we don't get a ton of merchandise, my kids would rather have a butterbeer than shirts and stuff. If they want something from the parks from a store they save up their money or ask for Gift Cards for holidays and then buy it themselves. So we don't really buy merchandise but enjoy the food.

It's certainly not fun to see these kinds of things, but I'll be completely honest that I get Butterbeer so infrequently that an extra .50 cents for a cup is not something I or many, many other people will even blink twice at. On the scale of Rollercoaster Tycoon-style MinMaxxing, this is incredibly tame.

I began buying Butterbeer less often because of the price increases. Never too young for a "back in my day…!" moment. They've skimped on the foam too!

I haven't had a Butterbeer since it crept above $5 or so. FYI, the 2010 price adjusted for inflation is $4.30.

I rarely get one because it barely feels worth it anymore, and I used to order 2 at a time in the beginning whenever I visited! Instead I'll get one of the other specialty beers or a different kind of specialty drink.

It put a damper on my small accidental Butterbeer cup collection I was creating. I'm sure there's been several most version since this.

I’ve never tried the Butterbeer from Universal Orlando even though I have visited multiple times from the UK. I have tried it from the WB studio tour London, so can’t draw any comparisons on price or taste. Does anyone know if it’s exactly the same?

I have tried both on numerous occasions and couldn't tell the difference.

Thanks, I was presuming it’s exactly the same but can’t always be sure. I’ll buy one next time and do a taste test ha.

Hogwarts Always, is a stunning new projection show debuting in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Hogsmeade on the 14th of June.

Set on select nights at the park, fans can gaze in awe as this new illuminating experience takes guests on a journey through iconic Hogwarts moments, set against the radiant backdrop of the famous castle and accompanied by a newly arranged score recorded with the London Symphony Orchestra.

Expect dazzling light effects and fan-favourite moments of a year in the life of a Hogwarts student combined for an unforgettable evening. And for an extra personal flourish, the show will also feature four different ending options - each a different Hogwarts house. You’ll have to grab a viewing spot to see if your house takes home the House Cup!

A continuous Hogwarts show is so needed, I hope this stays!

I hope Hollywood gets it for days when the park is open after sunset too

USH finally gets the Diagon expansion, although just a miniature version inside the tent. Budget engineered.

I have a similar question lol. I believe Orlando Informer has a sister page called California Informer.
