While liquor and wine are the same in Utah as the rest of the country we have two types of beer. Beer or malt beverage with up to 5% alcohol by volume is sold in grocery and convenience stores.

Restaurants, bars, and events in Park City carry a variety of different types of liquor licenses. Here is a quick list of where you can buy beer, wine, or cocktails.
Utah is home to more than a dozen craft breweries including Wasatch Beers, Squatters Craft Beers, Red Rock Brewing, Mine Shaft Brewing, Uinta Brewing, Bohemian Brewery, and Shades of Pale. And the newest addition, Park City Brewery, which transformed an auto-body shop into a brewery and taproom. You can find beer from Utah's craft breweries in restaurants, bars, grocery stores, and liquor stores. While beer sold in grocery stores and on tap in restaurants and bars is 3.2% alcohol by volume there is a wide variety of full-strength beer produced by these breweries and sold in cans and bottles in liquor stores and many restaurants and bars.
Drinking wine in Park City can be as simple as enjoying a glass of red wine with dinner to participating in a wine seminar or private tasting with Fox School of Wine. Several hotels in town have extensive wine cellars and offered private tastings with their certified sommeliers.
Utah's distilling history goes back to 1826 with the first recorded whiskey-fest. Today Park City is home to High West Distillery, the world's only ski-in distillery.
