When the zombie apocalypse hits Salt Lake, don’t count on the city council. From camo-clad coworkers to Browning shotguns, here’s your survival guide—Utah style.

Is Utah really a beer-drinking state? While craft breweries are thriving in unexpected places like Moab, the conversation around beer in Utah remains complex—shaped by culture, evolving trends, and the state’s unique liquor laws.

Utah’s craft beer scene is an enigma; small in numbers, yet mighty in influence. While locals drink less, the state’s brewers craft world-class beers that rival the best. Behind every pint is a story of passion, innovation, and a fight against the odds.

For decades, Salt Lake Brewing Co. has been the beating heart of Utah’s craft beer scene. From transforming a once-seedy district into a thriving pub destination to brewing iconic beers that shaped the industry, its legacy runs deep. Despite corporate shake-ups and shifting trends, one thing remains unchanged—the rich aroma of wort simmering in the morning and the familiar tap handles pouring fresh, locally crafted beer in the heart of downtown Salt Lake City.
