Drinking Around WS

[MemphisDad]

Have you ever tried to work your way through every country in WS and have a drink at each one? I have two questions for you - what is your plan of attack, and have you ever made it all the way around? Here's what I plan to do when we go in June:

Mexico - Corona (or shot of tequila, just to start off right!)
Norway - Rignes Beer
China - I know they have Sapporo but is there anything else?
Germany - Beck's Dark
Italy - White Wine
America - Bud
Japan - Sake (I think they have Kirin Ichiban, as alternate)
Morocco - Uh... what do they have in Morocco?
France - Red Wine
UK - Not a big Guiness fan... looking for other ideas
Canada - Molson, or Microbrew from Quebec

I know I'm asking for trouble mixing wine and beer like that, but we'll see what happens. I'm looking for suggestions for alternatives to what's on my list, too. Lastly, do you normally start from Mexico or Canada? I'm starting from Mexico because I enjoy the beverages on that side more... if I either don't make it past Japan or can't taste anything when I do, I won't be too upset!

You can always go with Bass in England, or Scotch. Don't forget the Ice wine in Canada. If you start in France and move around toward Mexico, ending in England, you can switch from wine to beer and that is the way to go if mixing.

Actually, you are asking for trouble if you try to do that all in one day (that is 11 drinks after all), unless you pace yourself to use an entire day (meaning 11 - 9, when WS is open) to complete your tour.

That being said, try Sam Adams at America instead of Bud, Bass or Harp at UK and the Moroccan beer (although I can't remember the name) is pretty good.

You can also try the wine sampling or wine flights at Germany, France and I think Italy...

I'll let you know how it works out this weekend for us!
As far as your choice, Mexico will either be Dos Equis beer or a margarita, you can't get tequila outside.
China has Tsing Tao, I know I butchered the spelling! Sapparo is actually a Japanese beer.
You can get Peroni beer in Italy.
The beer from Morocco isn't bad.
At the Uk, they actually have a full bar, so you can get whatever you want. I'd try the Harp or Tennents, I love them.
Have fun!

have to be very careful when you drink your way around the world, you know. My dad did this once, and he didn't get to enjoy his dinner at the Cali Grill at all! Hope you have casual eating planned for that day!

Plus, who is going to supervise your kids while you do this? I would imagine your answer is going to be your supercalifragilistic sister.

I'd go for the Gin and Tonic with ice and a slice at the Rose & Crown.
Good luck.

A frosty pint of Harp always hits the spot at the Rose & Crown.

Yes, we always joke about doing this, but frankly, I don't think any of us have ever had more than two drinks in one afternoon. My dad (who loved our trips to WDW) was a big fan of a Black and Tan at the Rose and Crown (it's Bass and Guiness mixed); we also like a Kir Royale from the cart outside France (champagne and black currant.) Margaritas are fun (though they're not the best); also like the Morrocan beer I tried. I think I've probably tried SOMETHING from every country. We usually have a pre-dinner cocktail most evenings somewhere in the World and stroll back to the Yacht and Beach.
