Mike & Sarah's Great American Brewery & Brewpub Tour

Have you seen Beer Wars? Not only has it strengthened our dislike for the big three (Anheuser-Busch, Coors and Miller), but it has also inspired us to visit as many breweries and brewpubs as we can in order to support micro brewers. We've been to many here in Washington and try to hit up whatever is local when we are on vacation. We are going to be keep a list here on the blog of all the ones we (either both or one of us) have visited.  I feel like I'm forgetting some........

We just got back from an amazing week in Maui with Mom and Dad Swenson.  I am in love with Hawaii and can't wait to explore a different island on our next trip.  Since this was our first Hawaiian vacation we packed a lot of things into one week.  Our home base was a condo in Lahaina where the beach was just outside our door.   Excursions included the road to Hana, hiking to a crater at Haleakala, a luau, and relaxing on the beach.
