If your idea of a perfect day is supping craft beer while enjoying the beauty of nature, this Colorado train ride may just be heaven.
The Durango Brew Train brings passengers aboard a vintage 1920s steam train for an afternoon of sampling craft beer, learning from real brewers, and appreciating the stunning Colorado wilderness.
Local brewers will pass out samples of delicious beers that range from bright IPAs to rich stouts.
While enjoying those beers, you’ll wind your way hundreds of feet above the Animus River in the Sa Juan Mountains, glimpse snowy mountain peaks, and enjoy panoramic views of farmland and canyon.
