Steamboat Brew Trail

While Steamboat Springs may be known for its abundant outdoor adventure and access to trails, we’ve got a different kind of trail to add to your Steamboat bucket list: The Steamboat Brew Trail. Here’s a roundup of our local breweries and favorites for you to enjoy on your next trip here.

About the Brew Trail

The Steamboat Brew Trail will take you from downtown Steamboat to the West end of town. The Brew Trail is made up of three local breweries serving some of the finest beers around Colorado and one distillery offering up small-batch whiskey, vodka, gin, and moonshine.

GETTING AROUND

Getting around the Steamboat Brew Trail has never been easier. Traveling 2.7 miles, the trail follows the Yampa River and winds its way through town. Pick your adventure and walk or bike the Brew Trail on the Core Trail. Don’t have a bike? Check out these local gear shops in town that will rent you a cruiser or an e-bike so you never have to worry about getting around safely or finding a coveted parking spot.
