Best Après in Winter Park

January 14, 2010

It’s time for suds instead of the slopes when you hear the Derailer Bar’s train whistle echoing off the mountains. The piercing blast signals the start of Happy Hour at 3 p.m. every day at the resort’s base. Try a pitcher of Mary Jane ale, named after a “woman of the night” during the mining era, or a "beer-and-a-bump" for more kick. You can also hit the new Cheeky Monk Belgium Beer Café in the Village at Winter Park, or head a few miles into town to the Winter Park Pub for food and drink specials, including dollar taco nights on Tuesdays.
