We have recently featured getaways for wine lovers, but what about VIP jet services for those of you who appreciate trying different beers? The good news is that microbreweries and craft beers are enjoying a renaissance. Major beer events and festivals are cropping up pretty well everywhere that Stratos Jet Charters flies. So get some friends together, check your schedules, and book a flight to experience the best beer celebrations around. Here are our top five beer destination suggestions:

Beer and Buffalo Tour, Sonoma California

Sonoma, California is synonymous with wine country, but Safari West offers an adventure for beer lovers. You’ll sample Sonoma’s best ales, IPA’s and porters while on a safari tour to see giraffes, buffalo, and zebras. Knowledgeable nature guides share brewery samples and snacks along the way. After photographing African wildlife from your safari vehicle, your group can take in the view from the Watusi Overlook and enjoy more of the local brews. Our VIP jet services can get you to the Sonoma County Airport, just ten minutes from Safari West.

Big Beers, Belgians and Barleywines Festival 

Consistently voted one of the Top Ten US beer events, the Big Beers Festival combines Breckenridge Colorado’s two passions: a gorgeous ski resort and robust Belgian-style beers. Last January, this event featured 146 breweries, from legendary craft breweries to innovative newcomers. This world-class beer festival is held in the scenic Beaver Run Resort & Conference Center complete with stunning vistas of the Colorado Rockies. Enjoy sampling a variety of beers, take in food pairing demonstrations, and meet other Belgian beer aficionados.  Breckenridge is accessible to Stratos VIP jet services through Lake County (LXV) Airport.

SAVOR: An American Craft Beer and Food Experience 

Definitely one of the classiest beer festivals in the US, this Washington DC-based festival pairs amazing craft brews with superior cuisine to create an unforgettable taste experience. Featuring over 180 beers from more than 90 breweries, SAVOR is a mecca for your palate.  Held every May in Washington’s National Building Museum, SAVOR’s menu has unique pairings such as ricotta gnocchi, chicken liver mousse, honey-pecan pork ribs, and smoked oysters.  The event sells out quickly, so get your tickets soon. Then book your Stratos Jet Charter flight to Washington, DC.

Festival of Wood & Barrel-Aged Beers

Wood and barrel aging gives beer a mellow, distinctive flavor. It’s a taste experience that has garnered a loyal following. Each November in Chicago, over 400 wood-aged meads, beers, ciders and perries (made from pears) are poured for fans. So diverse are the products, that each tasting session is scheduled for four hours.  The event concludes with an awards ceremony for each category. If you have an adventurous thirst, the Wood & Barrel-Aged Festival features the most diverse samplings ever housed in one place. Since Chicago is a major travel hub, VIP jet services have a variety of easy-access airport choices in the area.

So, raise your glass to some taste adventures. If you are thirsting for a luxury charter flight anywhere in the world, call Stratos Jets—888-593-9066.
