Step aboard a modern catamaran, the sail offers plenty of space to spread out, from shaded seating areas to open deck spots at the bow. The steady ride and wide layout make it easy to settle in, enjoy the breeze, and focus on the tasting without distraction.

The experience begins in the harbor of St. Michaels before heading out onto the Miles River and surrounding Chesapeake Bay waters. Along the way, guests sample a curated lineup of six craft beers, each offering a different style and flavor profile. Between pours, the scenery shifts from historic waterfront views to open stretches of water, with the chance to spot local wildlife and passing boats.
