WinterWonderGrass Lives up to its Billing in Their Inaugural Event at Stratton Mountain

Having covered WinterWonderGrass in the past for other publications, I have always been stoked on their format of combining the mountain setting with craft beer and bluegrass music. The idea that it is held yearly at such iconic locations as Steamboat and Squaw only adds to the allure. So when, this summer, WWG announced that it was coming to Stratton Mountain, a ski resort in southern Vermont that I spend plenty of time at yearly, I knew instantly that I just had to attend. Fast forward to the fall when I met the festival's founder, Scotty Stoughton, at a media event in...

Hop Culture to Throw An 80's Après-Ski Party That Any Craft Beer Lover Would Enjoy

Photo Credit: Hop Culture Magazine Ahhhhh...the 80's. What a great decade for mountain culture? Highlighter bright colors, jackets with shoulder pads or, better yet, a onesie, straight skis the length of picnic tables, pit viper sunglasses, big hair flowing in the wind as you raced down the mountain. Yup, 80's skiing was spectacular and so was the après with its cheap light beer, snow bunnies and classic sweaters. I could go on and on about what defined this generation on the mountain however, I'll spare you an even longer list of details. and just encourage you to watch the movie Hot...

Park City Breaks Longest Shot Ski Record. Ball is Now in Your Court Breckenridge.

If you follow my Instagram page @allaboutapres you know that we are a big fan of our Good Times Shot Ski, a collab that we did last winter with Facet Skis. Winter, spring, summer or fall, if there's a party or even a small gathering, the shot ski is waxed up and ready to roll. Whether it's in the backyard at a BBQ or at a bar during apres-ski the shot ski is the ultimate friend maker. It's been bringing people together since its inception and when it comes off the shelf, it's always a good time. This past weekend the people of Park...

From One Event to the Next, Mount Snow's Oktoberfest is a Whirlwind of Fun For All

I'm ashamed. 21 years and I'd never been to Mount Snow's Oktoberfest. I should really be put in some sort of après-ski detention center or something for neglecting such an event. Punishment or not, this will never happen again. My Oktoberfest virgin status has ended and it's safe to say that I've already got it marked on next year's calendar. I don't plan on missing another one. There's a reason why Yankee Magazine named it one of their Best Fall Events of 2018. With family friendly events running throughout the day and an atmosphere that is unparalleled, it's a good...

Stratton Ends Summer With The Most Complete Blues, Brews and BBQ Festival

It's hard not to love a good BBQ and Brews festival. It's two of my favorite food groups. Throw in some live music of the Blues genre and you have the ideal pairing for a weekend afternoon. Correction...make that the perfect pairing for any afternoon. Seriously, who doesn't love this combination? They make life worth living. These three B's also happens to be the meat in the Labor Day weekend sandwich (pun intended) that Stratton Mountain will be serving its patrons as they close out the summer with their first ever Blues, Brews and BBQ Festival. Pack up the SUV, head up to Stratton Mountain...
