“The CoolCraft Beverage Trail is such a popular experience, and we are always concocting new ways for people to participate,” said Georgia Turner, Executive Director of the West Volusia Tourism Advertising Authority. “This summer competition is a really exciting way for people to taste the best of what West Volusia establishments have to offer.”
Select concoctions include Trilogy Coffee Roasting Co.’s “Palmetto Highball”, a refreshing take on a classic with natural pineapple juice and single-origin espresso; Wander Bar’s “Camp Nowhere”, a truly unique cocktail featuring a feta cheese infused gin; and “Hello Summer”, Central 28 Brewing’s special pineapple jalapeño sour beer. Other participating “CoolCrafters” include Hyderhead Brewery, Blue Springs Brewing & Pizzeria, Persimmon Hollow Brewing Co., Odd Elixir Meadworks & Abbey Bar, MG Coffee Brews & Bites, NEST, The Lounge Tapas and Martini Bar, Buddha Bowls, and Centro Tea Co. & Plant-Based Kitchen.
The CoolCraft Beverage Trail kicked off last year to much success and has given visitors a chance to taste the best “crafts” around … and we aren’t just talking about the beer, though there is plenty. With more than a dozen destinations offering meads, smoothies, teas, coffees, and, of course, some of the best brews, you can tour and taste all the “trail” has to offer.
