Anyone ever "Drink Around The World" at Epcot?

Ah, good times

Reading the replies brought back good memories. I've started several times, maybe 8 or 9, but have finished 3, all during my College Program years between '93 and '98.

The problem with not finishing is always getting comfortable somewhere talking with friends and staying in one place the entire afternoon, specially at the Rose & Crown.

I've never tried it, and I don't think I ever could - unless they sold "sampler" sizes (like maybe a large shotglass). I'm such a lightweight.

I'd mention it to DH and BIL, but we'll be with kids, so that might not be the best idea.

What a great idea!
My alchohol tolerance means I may have to take a year out in between each drink but what the heck.
Donâ€™t know why Norway sells Carlsberg. OK it is Scandanavian as it is brewed in Copenhagen (alongside the better Tuborg) There are great Norwegian beers that certainly would knock your socks off, like their speciality â€œJuleolâ€

My DW and I(along with about a dozen friends) did it this year after the Goofy's Race and a Half Challenge. This was the Monday after the marathon weekend. We did all beers. We started at UK with a Bass and finished back at the UK with a Guiness. Started at Noon and finished around 9:00 pm. We "watched" Iluminations and than went to ESPN to watch the National Championship. Long day Tuesday. Very expensive

At least we could use DDE at some stops.

I can't say that I've ever really made it around the world, but one of my favorite things to do in Epcot is breeze right through Canada so I can get over to the Rose and get some Bass. Then i putz around in the shops in the UK for a while and finish the Bass as I cross the channel. Then it's time for lunch in France. Onion soup, bread and wine, of course. Then I get another glass of wine and make my way around to the USA for a Sam Adams. then I pick up a beer in Germany. And I top it all off with a Fiesta Margarita in Mexico. All the while I'm shopping and people watching and having a grand old time.

Ahhh!! You're missing a delicious Molson Canadian Beer and a performance by Off-Kilter! No way I'd skip those. That's my favorite part of a visit to the WS.

Oh yeah! During the Food and Wine Festival! I really love those half yards of Bass anytime of year though. Oh and the wine flights in France, Germany and Italy. Ahhh many great memories of drinking around the world.

Holy Cow! only 3-4 hours to drink in every pavillion!?! My wife and I made a half hearted attempt a few years ago and realized quickly that it wasnt going to work.
(Rookies!) It is on our Disney things to do list, but I think it would take us a long time to accomplish.

Remember during F&W you have all those extra countries to go through. A first time might be better during the F&G in the spring.

I cannot disagree with you there. But, I don't think they sell Moosehead at Epcot. Perhaps I am wrong.

It was my Canada drink of choice on my trip 'round... from a cart that also sold Molson and at least one other beer... it was on the edge of the pavilion closest to the U.K., kind of in front of the Off Kilter stage.

Please tell me they still sell Moosehead at the Canadian pavilion! The displaced Canadian in me has been very excited to have some come December. They had it last time I was there, though that was Dec '04. Was you trip more recent than that spaulo? Anyone who's been recently know? It's not listed on allears but they don't seem to have the 'beer menu' listed. *fingers crossed*

Moosehead was available as of Dec '05, haven't been back since then.
