Looking for the ultimate bar crawl? How about a sailboat bar crawl?

You don’t need a Round-the-World plane ticket for this kind of trip, just a sweet sailboat and a sober sailor. But be prepared to get a little wet,  as most of these spots are only accessible by boat.

The following are some venues to get your drink on after a day on the high seas.

1. Foxy’s, Great Harbour, Jost Van Dyke, British Virigin Island

Your first stop is Foxy’s, named for the notoriously outgoing owner, Philicianno “Foxy” Callwood, and known to be frequented by certain A-List celebraties like the Rolling Stones and Kenny Chesney. Foxy’s is located on the island of Jost Van Dyke in the British Virgin Islands and an easy and beautiful sail from the larger island of Tortola. While there, don’t forget to sample Foxy’s own microbrew. There’s also something called the Painkiller Punch – but we’re sure you can handle it. (http://www.foxysbar.com/home.html)

2. San Juan Brewing, San Juan Islands, WA

San Juan Brewing wants you to try some of their local brews, and you’re not one to turn down a challenge. Located in the heart of Friday Harbor on San Juan Island, this microbrewery and bar is a sailor’s refuge after a hard day of sailing the beautiful San Juan islands off the coast of Washington state. Pull up in your sailboat and start sampling (warning: you might need a night off after this one). (http://www.sanjuanbrewing.com/)

An Info-Graphic Flow Chart: What Should I Drink 

I’m trying to figure out what I want to brew next.  I’d like to do an IPA (India Pale Ale) as next #homebrew beer batch but I’m not so sure I’d like to do a beer next… I think I want to make a batch of wine.

I’ve been toying w/ the idea for awhile now.  My uncle makes wine & @ostinsfriend @RaluNY make it at his mom’s farm… The only thing is they make theirs from fruit they harvest their selves… I’d be using some dried shit or an extract from a can probably… I mean is it worth it to buy fruit from the store to use? I guess I’d have to get the organic for sure… wouldn’t want pesticides tainting my beverage (I said Taint)… I still got to figure this out… And I got some time since I bought this #iPhone4… I’ve been paying back the man (my name for money that’s really not for blowing) for money spent :)

If I do a beer, I think I’m going to start trying to get into winter/fall beers… So maybe a Porter, Stout, Oktoberfest, or I could do an IPA… I am definitely going to try my hand at a Lager this winter out in the garage… Just gotta figure out  how to keep the temp stable….

I’ve got a little time to mull it over because we’ve got a bunch of stuff going on in the next few weeks that’s going to keep me busy.  

At any rate, what’s your take on my next project? What should I do? Beer or Wine? What type?
