We all know that summer is perhaps New York’s finest season of revelry—bringing us free concerts, outdoor movie screenings, and festivals, fleas, and farmer’s markets galore. It also marks the return of one of my favorite New York summer activities: the Craft Beer Tasting Sail Series run by Manhattan By Sail.  Every weekend through the fall Manhattan By Sail loads up it’s Clipper City Tall Ship, a 158 foot long sail boat designed after a Civil War schooner, full of beer drinkers and day drinking revelers, and sets sail in the gentle waves of the Hudson River.  As if it weren’t enough to sail around the southern tip of Manhattan feeling like a pirate surveying incomparable views of the city as if you own them, each weekend features a different craft brewery serving samples of their finest beers.
