About the Event

A Winter Beer Getaway

Destination:Beer is the perfect combination for a winter getaway — a one-of-a-kind beer event set in the Idaho mountain town of McCall, alongside the snowy shores of Payette Lake.

Held under large heated tents decked out with lights, linens, and festive decor at Depot Park, the event brings together roughly two dozen Idaho breweries pouring more than fifty beers. Some rare, some barrel-aged — something for everyone. Appetizers are included with admission, with food pairings from Mountain Morsels and Cougar Dave's of Donnelly.

Good to Know

Frequently Asked

What should I wear?

This event is primarily outside…in February…in the Idaho mountains. We highly suggest warm footwear and layers. It could be snowing or it could be a bluebird day. We just don't know! We've experienced the coldest weekend of the winter and we've also had one of the warmest (with the least snow). We keep an eye on the forecast and include additional information in our pre-event communications. Layers are your friend!

Will it be cold?

Most likely! This event is in a tent, not the actual indoors. A tent can only do so much, so dress for the weather. Again, layers are your friend!

Will there be anything to drink besides beer?

We aim to include at least two different non-beer options. It's good to try new things, right?

How many VIP tickets are available?

50!

Will designated driver tickets be available?

Due to the nature of the event — unlimited beer and food — we have elected not to offer a designated driver option. When we did in prior years, people took advantage of the lower ticket price and simply drank anyway. Sorry, but the few ruin it for the many!

Can I bring my baby/toddler/tween/teen?

No. The event is strictly 21+ with valid identification.

Can I bring my dog?

Please leave all pets at home. Service animals are the only exception. While we're on the topic of what not to bring, please leave all weapons at home.

Can I transfer tickets?

Yes, tickets are 100% transferable. We caution against random social media deals. We try to monitor for scam posts, but in case we miss one, you can request us to check the validity of tickets.
