Looking for your newest adventure? Explore the Central PA Tasting Trail and discover your new favorite ales, wine, cider, and beer!

The trail is unique in two main ways: proximity and diversity. It is easy to book a room and set up a home base in State College and travel to any location on the trail in a matter of minutes. Also, many trails are just singularly focused on wine, beer, whiskey, etc., but ours offers a diverse offering to match any taste. The trail has also been a popular topic with travel writers visiting the area, such as this piece from Travel Addicts.

Each location is passionate about its craft, bringing its unique perspective to an ever-expanding variety of flavors and styles. Click here for the official Central PA Tasting Trail's website.
