Drinks & Nightlife
One six-pack purchased to support local beer introduced me to Brewmaster Daniel Maerzluft. Over a decade and a few different breweries later I'm still recommending his beer to people. I'm a big fan of the Milk Stout and the Nut Brown Ale.

This brewery was a good addition to Charles Town, WV. I would personally like to see them get a better variety outside of IPA's and hop heavy brews, but the beer is good. It's a great place to relax and hang out.

I have to give Weaver Park the spotlight, because I've spent time playing rugby here and coaching rugby here. It's not a spectacular park by any means, but it does have sentimental value.

This is my pick for lazy kayaking. It has a no-wake zone, so boats go slow through this area. You could put in here and float to Harpers Ferry if you wanted to.
