The first night we were there we ate at the Squatters brewery which I told Matt was the "Sasquatch brewery," until I looked it up. Close, right? Oh well, the food was good and they had some great names for their beers and that's all that matters!
Here is their link:

We started out the evening with their Pub pretzel which was served with Pale Ale mustard and 3 cheese dipping sauce. YUM! I particularly liked mixing the 2 dips on my plate and sopping it up with the pretzel.
For dinner, I ordered the Squatters Burbon burger and it was pretty good, but the real joy was in the tomato bisque. DELICIOUS! So good that instead of ketchup and mustard on my burger, I used it as a condiment.
We followed up dinner with a black and tan brownie which all 4 of us shared. Not a whole lot left to take a picture of, so this is a pretty good testament to how good it was!
Here is a selection of the beers they offer, kindly borrowed from the brewery's webiste
After a meal like that we could only follow it up by going to the hotel and watching some Olympics before bed!
While we were there we went into town and did a little shopping while attending the Park Silly street festival and we found the Mountain Town Olive Oil company. LOVE LOVE LOVE this place! And good news foodies, they ship!
Here is their link: http://www.mountaintownoliveoil.com/
This is a full service olive oil and balsamic vinegar tasting room where you can buy what you try! They also sell a variety of spices you can purchase.
Spices! |
More Spices! This is a very well laid-out shop with spices on one side and the olive oils on the other |
Olive oils in their stainless steel containers with tasting cups in front. The oils tasted so fresh and delicious! |
The balsamic vinegars came in so many flavors, like White Peach, Cinnamon Pear, Lavender, Coconut, and even Chocolate! |

Yes, that is ESPRESSO Balsamic vinegar! |
Mmmmmmmm! So good! |
The last stop on this food adventure is the High West Distillery and Saloon!
As always, here is the link: http://www.highwest.com/
Diner was AMAZING! We all had something a little different and sadly I was so pre-occupied with how delicious the food was that I didn't take pictures! Horror of horrors! It wasn't until the dessert and whiskey portion of the evening that I remembered I ought to share my delicious adventure!
But I have been spending some quality time on their site so I hope they don't mind me borrowing some of their photos and portions of their menu!
This is a lovely picture from the website. It was not snowy when we were there, but it was delightfully cool and breezy. I'd say the weather was pretty much so perfect while we were there! |
After this sumptuous collection of tender vittles, we finished the evening with whiskey and chocolates!
Now there was quite a conundrum, The dessert offering only had 3 whiskeys while the flight had 4. So to get the most out of the tasting I bought the flight and the chocolates separate!
The whiskey's on the flight. They also distilled 2 vodka's at the distillery which were quite nice. |
0.5 oz pours of whiskey paired with their respective chocolates. Delightful bliss! |
I'll be making a few dishes out of the cookbook this week and will share all the details with you later!
Until then, happy eating!
