Brits drink a lot and Californians instead smoke or go hiking.

Yesterday I, a Brit, hiked 25km with the finish line at the pub. Hiking and drinking is not incompatible at all.

The best hikes are the ones that end at a pub :). There's something magical about that first beer after a long hike that makes even the cheapest/worst lager enjoyable.

It can be ski tour, climb, and probably many more activities. After almost every climb with my buddy we go to some mcdonalds - in general I think very little of the company, but being tired from hard workout makes even junk food taste great. They have these small Heineken cans, I wouldn't normally drink that stuff even if it was for free, but after a good climb or whatever, its the best beer in the world.
