3 Barrels 3 Cities Launching in the spring of 2019 will be our newly developed spirits trail, called 3 Barrels 3 Cities. Similar in concept to 4 Taps 4 Cities (see below), the trail will be listed in our Toast the Coast Pocket Guide.

To participate, simply visit one distillery in three cities (Newport News, Hampton, and Smithfield), where your pocket guide will be stamped. Once you’ve completed three visits, turn in your stamped pocket guide to receive some cool Toast the Coast gear in return!

4 Taps 4 Cities Though it was created as a temporary promotion to introduce the public to the Toast the Coast beer, wine & shine trail, 4 Taps 4 Cities became so popular that we decided to keep it around a little longer!

In this challenge, participants are invited to experience four breweries in four different cities (Newport News, Hampton, Williamsburg, and Smithfield). After receiving a stamp at four breweries, participants can exchange their pocket guides for a one-of-a-kind Toast the Coast beer-opening koozie. Those who visit and receive a stamp from all breweries listed in the guide will receive both a koozie AND a Toast the Coast t-shirt.
