Slow Down. Take the Trail. Heighten Your Spirits!

Colorado boasts one of the largest and most vibrant distilling communities in the country. To inspire the discovery of spirits pioneered by some of the most creative makers in the industry, over 40 Colorado craft distilleries have joined together to create the Colorado Spirits Trail app.

We strive to redefine the American frontier and invite novices and connoisseurs alike to experience our innovative spirits across the Eastern Plains and the Western Slope, through the bustling cities of the Front Range, and the snowy peaks of the Rockies.

How It Works

Download the Colorado Spirits Trail app on an iOS or Android device and create a free account to begin participating in the passport program. 

Trailblazers will be rewarded for visiting and checking into participating app distilleries. Each time you check in to a distillery, you’ll receive a passport stamp for that location.

• After 10 passport stamps you’ll receive an official Colorado Spirits Trail t-shirt.
• For every 5 distillery visits you’ll receive a new virtual passport badge and one entry into the grand prize drawing for a Chaffee County Spirits Enthusiast Getaway. 
  • The grand prize drawing is valued at over $1,000 and includes:
    • Two-night stay at the Surf Hotel & Chateau in Buena Vista.
    • Private tour for two at Deerhammer Distillery & Woods High Mountain Distillery.
    • Two exclusive Whiskey Flights at The Slammer.
    • Dinner for two at the Boathouse Cantina
  • The drawing will take place on Friday, February 2, 2024. The last day to receive an entry into the drawing is 11:59 p.m. MST on Wednesday, January 31, 2024.
  • The winner must provide their own transportation and will be responsible for booking their stay and experiences.
  • Availability and exclusions may apply.
• Passport holders have two years from the date of their first stamp to complete the trail. After two years, their stamps will expire and they will begin a new passport.

MUST BE AT LEAST 21 YEARS OF AGE TO PARTICIPATE. NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. PLEASE ENJOY RESPONSIBLY.
