Nothing against a hot toddy nor mulled wine, or even hot cider for that matter, but it can’t be a coincidence that skier and beer rhyme. Check out these ski resorts amidst Beer Traveler-worthy destinations (Vol. 32, Iss. 1, 2011): Park City, Lake Tahoe, and Stowe (VT).
Flying North for the Winter, the Beer Traveler column (Vol. 31, Iss. 6, 2010) in which I migrate northward to such beer locales as Anchorage, Montreal, and the Twin Cities. Bundle up.
Beer Into Thin Air is my Beer Traveler column (Vol. 31, Iss. 5, 2010) exploring some of the best beer towns at high elevations, so naturally they’re along the Continental Divide, in order from north to south: Jackson (WY), Durango (CO), and Flagstaff (AZ).
This story on Beer Pilgrimages for All About Beer’s travel issue (Vol. 31, Iss. 5, 2010) tackles not just some venerable and historic breweries at the top of a solid Beer Bucket List, but the places to go once you’ve naturally checked those off. Places such as McSorley’s in NYC, the National Brewery Museum (in Potosi, WI, donchya know), and the fields (barley and hops) in which our beer grows across the Northwest.
Follow the Music, my second Beer Traveler column (Vol. 31, Iss. 4, 2010) pairs my 3 faves: beer, travel, and music by exploring some of the coolest musicfests in beer towns such as Telluride (CO), Chicago, NYC, and Quebec City.
This beach-themed Beer Traveler was my first submission taking over this long-running column and as such represented a dual honor. It’s fair to say beer + travel were already front-of-mind for me. Now if only I could rack up enough miles to fly front-of-plane. Served up for this theme: Orange County (CA), Virginia Beach (VA), Honolulu (HI), and Tampa/St. Petersburg (FL).
