    Port Clinton is crawling with Trail Angels, they let you camp out next to a beautiful stream in town and there is a brewery close by. Neo sucks.

    I know what you mean about no beer on Sundays! You definately have to plan for that one. Other than that I really enjoyed Hiawassee. We stayed at the Holiday Inn Express and ate at Daniels Steak House (I think that was the name of it) I heard it burned last year. Anyway, they had a REALLY good AYCE buffet.

    Close enough, as long as you can say it you are fine. It is Yuengling, though, oldest brewery in America.

    ==================================
    I had never tasted a Yuengling (thanks for the correct spelling) prior to my thru in 2003. I remember more than once hiking a long day just to get into a town where I could get my hands on one (or two ...or three). Can't get any out here in Wyoming <sigh>

    I have always felt welcome in Duncannon and Port Clinton, which is the measure by which I judge a town. I find, though, that many hikers who make it to Pennsylvania from either direction have acquired a bit of a 'tude. Not most, just many. I don't know how I would respond if large numbers of strangers were passing through my town for months on end, but the folks in trail towns in PA handle it a lot better than I would.

    I also had never tasted a Yuengling until my thru last year. They're pretty dang tasty and cheap, too. The only place that I've been able to find themt in GA was in Savannah. Does anybody know how I can get in touch with Yuengling's distribution? It would be sweet if they sold their nectar of the Gods here in the Atlanta/Northern GA part of the state. I would definitely bring a few (along with some Bud heavies) to the GA trailheads for some trail magic if I could get my hands on some...

    Oh, and I didn't have a least favorite town; however, my favorite town was Damascus. We had a hard time leaving that place - in particular the Baja Cafe'...

    All their brews may be enjoyed at the Port Clinton Hotel.
