Park City, Utah, stands as a prime destination for snowboard fans, offering an incredible mix of powder, terrain parks, and lively après-ski vibes. Whether you're having wine and steak after tackling the slopes or street tacos and local brews with friends, this mountain town caters to all. Utah’s craft beer scene is thriving, with local breweries serving up everything from crisp lagers to bold IPAs. TF Brewing’s Granary Kellerbier is an easy-drinking, unfiltered lager with a smooth finish, upon the first sip of Shades Brewing’s Foggy Goggle, expect to be enveloped by a malty aroma. While Saaz hops contribute to a subtle balance, they take a backseat to the malt-forward profile. Uinta’s Cutthroat Pale Ale is a balanced classic with just the right amount of hop bite. Straight outta Ogden, Roosters’ Patio Pilsner is crisp and refreshing, and Talisman’s Uplifted Scottish Ale delivers rich malt character with a hint of caramel. Wherever you are in Utah, there’s a perfect pint waiting. Just don't forget your ID.
