New way to experience Md., Del., beaches? Travel the brewery trail

WASHINGTON — It started with Dogfish Head.

The popular craft brewery put Delaware on the map of the beer world when it opened in 1995. Since then, several others have popped up to further bolster the Eastern Shore’s spot in the beer world.

And while there are tons of breweries worth visiting on the way to the beach (I recommend Tall Tales near Salisbury, Maryland, and RaR in Cambridge, Maryland), for the sake of this “coastal beer trail,” you have to be at the beach to make the cut.

This trail starts along Kings Highway in Lewes, Delaware, then takes a turn onto Coastal Highway. After meandering through Rehoboth, it jumps back on Coastal Highway for the breweries in Dewey Beach, followed by those in West Ocean City.

HAIKOU, China (AP) — China said on Sunday it was postponing its planned ambitious Chang’e-7 lunar mission, which was set to carry out explorations including searching for water ice on the moon. The Chang’e-7 spacecraft was originally set to lift off in the coming days from the Wenchang Space Launch Site on China’s southern Hainan island. The mission does not meet the launch conditions, said the China Manned Space Agency in a brief statement, and “cannot take place during the planned window this year.” The decision was made following a “comprehensive assessment,” the agency added, and was based on the principles of “prudence, reliability and absolute mission success.” It did not further elaborate on the reasons behind the decision.
