Here’s a look at some of our favorites Park City breweries, starting with what we consider the best places to grab a beer.

Located at the top of Historic Main Street is the locally famous Wasatch Brew Pub. One of the earliest brewpubs in the state, Wasatch is known for its edgy marketing and very unique beer names and labels.
