Hike The quintessential Oahu tourist hike. It was pretty easy, but the views did not disappoint. https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/hawaii/diamond-head-leahi-summit-trail Drink No alcohol. I was driving around a bunch this day trying to see more sites so I did not drink here. Plus it was really crowded with tourists. I prefer relaxing in the peaceful outdoors and collecting […]
Hike I loved this hike. First time I got the real jungly feel in Hawaii. It was a bit difficult to follow the trail at times. Some parts were slippery and muddy. Totally worth it though. Probably the most secluded spot I visited my entire trip. https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/hawaii/waimano-falls-trail Drink Coconut Beer! From Honolulu Beerworks. I am
Hike This hike was paved the entire way. Good, easy hike for tourists with some great ocean views and apparently great whale watching (I didn’t see any, though other people right next to me did). I added the Makapu’u Tide Pools to this hike which was a bit scrambly down the cliff. https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/hawaii/makapuu-point-lighthouse-trail-kaiwi Drink It
Hike I actually started from down at Hanauma Bay after a morning of snorkeling. I guess that added an extra mile each way and probably several hundred feet. I also did the whole thing in water shoes because I am stupid. https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/hawaii/koko-head-crater-trail–2 Drink No alcohol. Not only did I not think to bring any, but

I actually made it to the Maui Brewing Company restaurant in Waikiki, Hawaii. Twice. The first time it was a great experience. We had a big group. We sat out on their patio on a nice night and enjoyed good food and some great beer. This is when I had their Waimea Red Ale. Probably

Hike Fun, short, steep hike. Kinda a hidden gem and real close to the city. https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/utah/jacks-mountain Drink I am in love with this beer. Gose is my new favorite, and this gose is amazeballs. http://www.properbrewingco.com/our-beers/
Hike I was supposed to meet some friends for the Ensign Peak trail (linked below), but it is kinda short for me. I arrived a couple hours earlier and meandered on the trails behind Ensign Peak. https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/utah/ensign-peak-trail-and-overlook Drink Evolution Amber Ale from good ol’ Wasatch Brewery. Nothing fancy. Just a simple, yet tasty ale. https://www.wasatchbeers.com/beers.aspx

Hike I took the trail linked below to the bridge. It is really just the Bonneville Shoreline Trail. From there I followed some random sign pointing up the mountain that read “Trail of the Eagle.” https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/utah/bear-canyon-bridge-via-bonneville-shoreline-trail Drink Not just any old Blue Moon, but a Pacific Apricot Blue Moon. For most of these hikes I

Hike It’s like going to the Living Room, but you swing a right up the canyon and go up for another mile. Easy “peak” hike with some good views. Nifty tower on top you can climb. https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/utah/big-beacon-mount-wire-trail Drink Yard Sale Winter Lager from another Utah brewery, Uinta Brewing. I really like this beer during the
Hike This hike was amazing. It had a bit of everything. I loved the 360 views from the top. Fair warning though; Antelope Island can be crappy with bugs and smell during fairer weather. https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/utah/frary-peak-trail–2 Drink Wasatch Brewery’s Blueberry Hef. One of my favorite beers. The blueberry mellows out an already easy drinking hef. I
