Just recently completed a Mighty 5 national park road trip in Utah, which, as always, includes on our vacations, stops at local breweries. We enjoyed some great b**rs at Zion Canyon Brewery just outside the gates of Zion NP, Proper Brewing and Moab Brewing in Moab, UT near Arches NP, and stops at local restaurants outside of Capitol Reef, and Canyonlands. I noticed immediately that all drafts were at 5% or less. Utah state law stipulates draft b**rs be at this ABV, but the same b**r in can or bottles can be a higher ABV. Go figure. Also, it seems inevitable that high tourism towns charge a premium for food and drink with draft pints at $7. Have you experienced these prices in other parts of the US in high traffic tourist destinations? Comments welcomed. (Submitted by J. McFaul)
