Beech Mountain Brewing Co. expands and merges

In a collaboration that’s sure to please the palate of craft beer aficionados, Beech Mountain Brewing Co. has merged with Blind Squirrel Brewery. The combined brewery, under the guidance of Brewmaster Will Young, will set the standard for craft beer in the High Country. Make sure to visit the brewery, located in Ski Village, to taste an exciting lineup of beers born from the finest ingredients and crafted with amazing attention to detail. The brewery itself was completely remodeled over the summer to include a brand new deck and a comfortable tap room accessible to skiers and non-skiers a like. This will no doubt be one of the resort’s most popular spots this season.

Burton Learn to Ride Center

You are never too experienced to learn new tricks or try new things. Burton Learn to Ride (LTR) Centers are located worldwide, including, for the first time ever, Beech Mountain. The LTR Center enhances the entire snowboarding experience, from skill development to gear and is designed to get you up and riding before you even realize it. Gain new skills from the best hands-on instruction available in a low-pressure learning environment via half-day or full-day lessons. Then, test your skills on high-quality gear made specifically for beginners from Burton, a globally leading snowboarding manufacturer. The Burton Learn to Ride equipment is designed to accelerate the learning curve with an integrated system of boots, boards and bindings that were developed to provide ease of use and instill confidence at the introductory level. The Learn to Ride snowboards feature a softer flex and an edge bevel, which reduces the likelihood of catching an edge and makes linking turns easier. If you have already perfected your snowboarding skills, The Burton Learn to Ride Center offers a full line of new rental snowboards.
