Spirits to Ring in the New Year: Celebrate in Vail

As the clock strikes midnight and we welcome the New Year, there’s no better way to celebrate than with a toast of fine spirits. Alpine Wine & Spirits in Vail offers an exclusive Spirit of the Month, perfect for ringing in 2025. This month, savor the rich, bold flavors of D’Usse VSOP Cognac —an exceptional choice for your New Year’s Eve party or quiet celebration at home. This VSOP offers a rich, full-bodied profile with bold, aromatic complexity. Its character is enhanced by woody notes and warm hints of cinnamon, developed through aging in dry cellars. The smooth and rounded finish is achieved through the influence of humid aging conditions. Each bottle is crafted from eaux-de-vie aged for at least 4 ½ years.

Exploring the History of Oktoberfest and Exciting Events in Vail

Oktoberfest is one of the most celebrated traditions in the world, bringing together beer enthusiasts, food lovers, and music fans for a unique cultural experience. Originating in Munich, Germany, in 1810, Oktoberfest began as a royal wedding celebration for Crown Prince Ludwig and Princess Therese of Saxe-Hildburghausen. The citizens of Munich were invited to join in on the festivities, including horse races, feasts, and Beer. Over the years, the festival has evolved, with Beer becoming the central focus. Today, Oktoberfest is synonymous with massive steins of Bavarian Beer, hearty German food like pretzels and sausages, and traditional folk music.

While Munich may host the most famous Oktoberfest, the tradition has spread globally, with many cities hosting their own event versions. Vail, Colorado, is a destination offering a thrilling Oktoberfest experience, complete with stein-lifting competitions, bratwurst-eating contests, and authentic Bavarian Beer. In September, Vail hosts multiple weekends of Oktoberfest festivities, including live music, traditional Bavarian costumes, and plenty of Beer. On Vail’s official website, you can find more about specific event details, including dates and activities.
