Idaho Chill-Crawl

🍺No traffic lights, no rush—just frothy local pints and river-breeze patios. 🎯 Tasting Trail (walk-able in 90 min) 1️⃣ Bittercreek Alehouse Beer Bible vibe: 100+ taps, every state tagged on the menu like a liquid map. Hack: order 4×5 oz “taster” flights = cross-country road-trip for your mouth. Bonus: house-made soft pretzel with IPA-cheese dip—carb shield activated. 🥨 2️⃣ 10 Barrel Brewing – Boise Corner lot, mountain-view patio. Signature flight: 10 mini mugs hanging off a wooden ski—Instagram bait that actually drinks great. Must-sip: ‘Apocalypse IPA’ (pine-resin bomb) + ‘Pray for Snow’ winter ale. 3️⃣ STIL (“Sweetest Thing In Life”) 🍦🍺 Dessert-first brewery: pick any ice-cream flavor, staff pairs a 4-oz beer flight. Winning duos: Pineapple-Coconut gelato + citrus wheat beer = tropical shandy. Lavender honey ice-cream + dry-hopped saison = liquid spa day. Vegan options: oat-milk bases + fruit sorbets. 📌 Still-On-My-List Refills Payette Brewing – river-front lawn, giant Jenga, famous ‘Mutton Buster’ brown ale. Boise Brewing – employee-owned, rotating experimental taps (think huckleberry kettle-sour). Lost Grove Brewing – hidden grove patio, nitro cold-brew stout for coffee addicts. 🚶‍♂️ Self-Guided Pub-Crawl Map Start Bittercreek ➜ 4 min walk ➜ 10 Barrel ➜ 3 min ➜ STIL ➜ optional Uber 5 min to Payette river-lawn for sunset finale. 💡 Taster etiquette flights usually 4-5 oz each – pace = sip, photo, notes, repeat. ask for “tasting notes card” most places print IBU / ABV / flavour wheel – instant beer-nerd cred. 🍻 Bottom line Boise breweries don’t just make beer—they bottle the city’s chill DNA. Drink local, walk slow, and let the blue turf glow guide you to the next pour. #US #ID #Boise
