GOLDEN ISLES PLANNING Food + Drink Beach House A newcomer on the Jekyll Island dining scene, Beach House lives up to its name. The bright, modern oceanfront restau- rant excels in offering a taste of coastal flavor in a laid-back, upbeat atmosphere. The beachy vibe extends to the innovative, locally inspired menu of burgers, sandwiches, salads, and artisan pizzas. The real draw is what’s on tap — an eclectic selection of more than two dozen craft beers, including regional brews, available by the pint or growler. Indoor and outdoor seating with oceanfront views and a kid’s menu offer something for everyone. You can find the Beach House next door to Holiday Inn Resort. jibeachhouse.com 912.319.0033 Richland Rum Did you know that ‘America’s Best Rum’ is made right here in Georgia?

The result is an aromatic, elegant sipping rum that delights rum connoisseurs and makes converts of whiskey drinkers. A visit to the distillery in downtown Brunswick is a must. Admire the open spaces in the beautifully renovated building, the gleaming copper pot stills, and tour the distillery guided by The Master Distiller and his team.
