Fernie (BC), Canada – In addition to the complete renovation and new restaurant and bar called Cirque Restaurant, Lizard Creek Lodge at Fernie Alpine Resort will boast a new Ice Bar this winter.

The new Ice Bar will offer a line up of sub-zero vodka. Lizard Creek Lodge provides the Helly Hansen goose down parkas, all you’ll need to bring is your sense of adventure.  At an ultra-low temperature the elite Ice Room is a frozen vodka tasting room, with more than 20 vodkas from across the globe.

Vodka experts will explain how the intricacies of distillation and filtration affect the flavor profile of the finished product.  Taste a Stoli Vodka and two more vodkas of your choice, and discover how the extreme environment enhances the flavor while minimizing the alcohol burn.

Lizard Creek Lodge is a boutique ski in/ski out hotel property located at Fernie. This summer’s renovations have transformed the Lodge’s gorgeous great room into an even more alluring après-ski venue. Some features haven’t changed, like the expansive ceilings, tall windows with mountain views, and river rock fireplace with its roaring hearth that provides the architectural and design centerpiece for this spectacular space. Think rustic and chic, warm and welcoming. On one side of the hearth sits a new bar.  On the other side, a long bar will entice skiers, boarders and other winter enthusiasts seeking shelter from the cold and a chance to unwind over a casual après-ski cocktail and snack.  There will be space for 110 dining guests – reservations recommended, of course.
