Things to do in Homer, Alaska (AK): The Best Food & Drink
Homer is a nature lover's nirvana where common sights can include moose grazing, a black bear crossing the road or porpoises playing in the surf. The charming seaside city, overlooking Kachemak Bay and the Kenai Mountains, can be the starting point for a multitude of exciting adventures, including glacier skiing and viewing and guided kayak tours. Naturally splendid Kachemak State Park offers even more outdoor fun, with miles of excellent backcountry hiking trails. Explore nearby Halibut Cove, a unique fishing and artists' enclave where the roads are made of water. Or head to downtown Homer to sample delicious seafood, art galleries, museums and shops that sell locally made crafts. A trip to Homer would not be complete without casting a rod for salmon or halibut, the area's major catches. Head to the Homer Spit and try your luck from the shore or join a chartered fishing boat excursion. No matter which activities you choose, a weekend in Homer is sure to be an unforgettable experience.

It was a fun experience tasting the wines and it only cost $5 per person for up to 8 wines (cost is credited if you buy a bottle of wine). The wines are not the usual Napa style wines with all grapes but focus on fruits. So if you are a true wine connoisseur you may not appreciate the wines as much. The employees were very nice. Note there is no place for RV parking. We were fortunate that it was almost empty that day and we could park across 5 spots but I wish they noted this in their ads (included in all of the tourist maps and brochures).

When even your friend who doesn’t like beer drinks this beer, you know it’s good. Consistently good quality. Modest selection of sodas for non-alc drinkers. As with many tasting rooms, there’s limited indoor seating but more outdoor seating when it’s warm out. Resident cat is a bonus.

The owner was working and she was so nice and informative. We loved the peanut butter porter and apricot wheat beers. We also had the smoked salmon, cream cheese and ritz appetizer and for $10 it was a bargain and was delicious.
