The Delaware Tourism Office recently announced an updated way for both visitors and residents to check out the state’s many locally owned craft beverage businesses using a new seamless Delaware On Tap Trail interface. Users can explore Delaware’s many breweries, wineries, distilleries, cideries, and meaderies all through one platform, easily accessed on the Delaware on Tap Trail website.   

“Finding new ways to draw visitors and residents alike into these businesses is at the core of our office’s mission. As the craft beverage industry continues to evolve, we believe the Delaware On Tap Trail should also evolve to create a climate and community that helps craft beverage businesses to thrive.” said Delaware Tourism Director, Jessica Welch. 

Under the new platform, users can “check in” at various craft beverage sites throughout the state. Each site visit earns the user points on an upgraded points system. Once users accumulate a defined number of points, they can redeem them for unique Delaware on Tap prizes. To sweeten the deal and encourage users to sign up through the new platform, the Delaware Tourism Office is offering free Delaware on Tap t-shirts to the first 100 participants that check in at 10 participating trail locations.  

The Delaware On Tap Trail is one of Visit Delaware’s three Trails of Discovery. Each trail gives tourists a unique way to explore the state. The other two trails are the Delaware History Trail and the Delaware Discoveries Trail. Launched initially in 2010 with 12 locations under the Delaware Wine & Ale Trail name, the Delaware On Tap Trail now boasts more than 35 participating businesses.
