Second time on the blue agave tour Unfortunately the second…read moretime around wasn't quite the same as the first... Our tour guide today was quite friendly but not very informative Most of the time he just set up front talking to the driver I suppose I might be comparing it to the first time which was great! That tour was a few years ago and she was very talkative, funny, and informative of both the flora and Fana. The blue agave tour in end of itself this time was also lacking. One the tour guide really didn't inform our group much of the process of making "tequila", just the video And the staff at los Osos we are basically not really there... Other than the people trying to sell the crafts at the small booths next to the tequila tasting. They complete five star part of this tour is the stop for lunch. The food cooked in Molcajete is absolutely worth the tour if nothing else. The food is excellent, the salsa made by you! on the table, the little smattering of beans and guacamole with the accompanied blue tortillas was excellent! Just remember... LUNCH YOU HAVE TO PAY for as it is not included in the price of your tour. Something they need to outline. And YES, they do take credit cards there. We were told they did not. All in all the tour was comfortable, the small town we visited was cute and quiet, and the food that we stopped for and paid for was excellent! Will I do this again... Not quite sure!

This popular port is known primarily for their seafood, especially shrimp. We booked the tour…read morecompany with Costco Travel and the instructions was to find our guide at the "umbrellas". We got a lot of bang for our buck with this tour. Our tour guide was Juan, but he said we can call him "Chilly Willy", a nickname his friends call him. This 6'5″ giant was a delightful tour guide. Very articulate, humorous, and a local to Mazatlan. Originally, we were supposed to stop first at the Cathedral, but had to make a stop at the shrimp market. It wasn't a market you'd find inside a building at a ports of call. It was rows of independent vendors selling their catch under a tent in the streets of Mazatlan. Unfortunately, we didn't see the actual market as Chilly had the driver go outside to bring back 2 samples of the shrimps from Mazatlan. Following the quick "show and tell", Chilly had the driver take us to another market, similar to a Grand Bazaar. You can find everything from clothes, souvenirs, to fresh food ranging from seafood to produce. Chilly tried to give us a quick overview of the market, and moved rather quickly. I didn't want to get separated from the group, and was only able to capture the seafood and meat section. I had wished he gave us a little more time here. We hopped back on the bus and made our way back to the original stop: the Cathedral Basilica of the Immaculate Conception, located in the heart of the city center. We were given a brief summary of the church, and then allowed some time to roam the grounds, grab a snack, or use the bathroom at the Panama bakery. We left el Centro (the center of town) and Chilly had the driver take us to the Golden Zone Mazatlan with the fancy hotels and condos. Our next stop on the tour was at a micro distillery called Onilikan. What's interesting about this micro distillery is the company was founded by Canadians! Like our other tequila stop in Puerto Vallarta, this place gave samples of their spirits. Stephen didn't care for their tequila, but did enjoy their liqueurs and purchased 2 bottles. What was surprising was Stephen's dad really enjoyed a liqueur, he even purchased a bottle! This tour is far from over as we piled back on the bus and made our way along the coast for the highlight of the trip... to watch the cliff divers (or cliff jumpers). Acapulco is more famous for their cliff divers, but Mazatlan has been jumping since 1961. The divers expect tips so have a few bucks handy. Our tour continued back to the historic part of town, stopped at the Casa de Haas (as in Haas avocados) and we walked to the Angela Peralta Theater Opera House, before heading back to the ship around 2:00. I wish Chilly allowed us more time to explore certain areas. I know he is on a time schedule, but most of the tour was on the bus, not on the ground. Its a good oversight of the town, and to make note to visit places next time.

He sacrificed what is in the spout to make sure the best quality comes out. When he poured, he poured at a 45 degree angle. It has the right amount of head to make sure the beer is not flat. The beer in the glass has no small bubbles sticking the glass. Yes the glass was clean before the pour. First time seeing someone pouring beer the correct way as per what I was told in one of my old jobs. B said the beer here are excellent. Especially the Islena.

The proprietor was busy cleaning the exterior of the place and we asked (in Spanish) if he was open and he answered back in English that yeah, we could come on inside. Sometimes little happenstance discoveries make life the best, and this is one of them. There's a very small brewery room where beer is made right on the premises. It's not the fanciest of operations, but it works. We opted for a sampler of local beers from regions throughout the country. The portion sizes of the sampler were huge. I had a large bottle of water and our total check was less than $6 U.S. The guy also popped fresh popcorn for us as a bar snack. The vibe is really cool, with loud Spanish music and an open (practically outdoor) beer garden feel. Instead of a traditional German look, it felt more like a warehouse with rad graffiti and street art all over. Since it was still early, we were the only folks inside until two older American women wandered in. They came up to the bar where we were quietly enjoying the beer and conversation in Spanish with the man there and loudly yelled out "do you have BELGIAN BEER?!?" No kidding. He was so polite and said no, they only had Mexican beer. The ladies were none to happy with this and said something along the lines of "what kind of brewery doesn't have Belgian beer?" and left. We then all three proceeded to shake our heads, roll our eyes, and poke fun at them. Ridiculing idiots is the universal language that can bring us all together, LOL.

But walking down the street one day while exploring Mazatlan, we stumbled across Cueva Del Diablo. This is an amazing open air craft beer bar with some delicious offerings. Pale Ale's, Red's, IPA's etc. This is exactly what I needed and have been searching for all week. Even the locals I asked didn't know about this place. Cueva needs to be put on the map, especially with such good beers on tap. However, their is an apartment right above the brewery that has a patio overlooking the entire establishment. This patio sadly held the most obnoxious POS dog on the planet that was incessantly barking at every patron in this place. It was so obnoxious that it caused us to leave prematurely. So if someone could do away with it that would be great. Mkay.
