The best après-ski bar in North America is a Colorado brewery
Frisco’s Outer Range Brewing and The Fitz in Vail both landed on USA Today’s new list
It shouldn’t come as a surprise. Colorado is, after all, the best state in the United States for both skiing and drinking. But the competition was pretty stiff: Tahoe, Whistler, Vermont, Jackson Hole.
Still, Colorado landed two spots on USA Today’s new list of the best après-ski bars in North America — and the top spot was a brewery.
Coming in a No. 8 was The Fitz at Manor Vail Lodge in Vail.
“The Fitz is a destination for foodies and families alike, known for serving comfort food and drinks with a bit of flair,” USA Today said. “Their delicious menu is filled with delicious choices, like their grilled mahi-mahi fish tacos, rib-eye sandwich, and Fitz Burger, all of which hit the spot after a day on Vail’s epic slopes. With an impressive local draft list, it’s also a great spot to grab a drink.”
Topping the list at No. 1 was Outer Range Brewing in Frisco.
