Go.
We have at least one active member from the islands, where the heck is he? He should be weighing in on this... Come on C-rider...
Yeah, I kinda figured if I put this out he would respond. Will be going to Hawaii in a couple of weeks. Wanted to taste the local brew. I have heard Fire rock is pretty good. Interested in trying Maui Brewing as well. Not sure how much selection they have on the smaller islands. Might need to pack some over from Oahu.
I'm polling the members of the West Oahu Brew Club lets see what they offer.
C-rider, I'm headed to lanai. Anything I have to do while I'm there? I'll be on Oahu for two days, but mostly to see Pearl Harbor, et al.
C-Rider said:Not much to do on Lanai cept relaxing. There is some private hunting for Axes Deer and Muflon Sheep. Most likely golf and swimming/snorkeling. Haven't been there in 10 years of more.
Be prepared for PH. You can't carry any bags to the memorial or the battle ship Mighty Mo. There is a place to check in bags just off the parking area.
DrHops said:I lived on Lanai for 3 months years ago. The Manele Bay Beach is georgeous! The coral reef is very close to the water surface and hundreds of fish will swim around you. As far as food, if you want to go all out there's the Lodge at Koele or the Manele Bay Hotel. If you want fish just as fresh but more affordable, try the dining room at Hotel Lanai.
I'm headed to Oahu on Saturday with my family. Not planning much in advance other than relaxing. My daughter just turned 1. I'm sure she'll eat sand and have a good time. We're staying within walking distance of the zoo so will probably go there too.
Thanks for the tip on PH and no bags. I hope to be able to go there on this trip.
I'll post again about any good beers I find.
C-Rider said:Another Tip. You may be in Paradise, but we still have crooks. Don't leave ANYTHING of value in y our car as you drive around the island and stop to look at the sights or go in for a swim.

Big Swell kind of reminds me of Ninkasi Total Domination IPA.
